This beautiful spoonbill came cruising by and I was fortunate to get a shot with its wing tips up.I have read that most passenger jets now employ "winglets" at wing's end to decrease turbulence and increase efficiency. I think birds who do this came up with the idea before Boeing.
Nice shot! I've got an owl shot with the wing tips up too.

Thanks for clarifying the wing design in planes. I've noticed this in birds and wondered why planes have recently been designed this way.
Very nice image, too.
Very nice image, too.

Fantastic image Doctor J, and will never forget our first sighting of several on our initial trip to Florida about eight years ago!
