Got a few shots of this one perching on a Hobie cat masthead on the beach at the West end of Montecito. Nice soft light and plenty of it to work with, and the bird was pretty tolerant of people.

Shot with Olympus OMD-E-M1, M. Zuiko 75-300, f4.8-6.7 II at 300mm, f/8, ISO-200, 1/800s. Image is cropped to about 1/4 of the frame and exposure adjusted a little in PS.

Not bad for a four megapixel image. I find it fascinating that he/she could perch on that small of a size pole.
