The American avocet is a very graceful bird, with longs legs and a thin, delicate beak. I came across this particular bird late one afternoon in Arapaho National Wildlife Refuge in north central Colorado. It was feeding in a shallow swampy area, providing a nice opportunity for reflections. Nikon D300 with Nikkor 200-400mm lens (at 400mm) ISO 400, f/6.3 at 1/320th of a second
