This is not a great photo technically, but the subject is both rare and 
beautiful, so I'm showing it anyway.

Corkscrew Swamp Preserve in SW Florida.  Olympus E-M5 with Voigtlander 
90/3.5 LTM lens and adapter, and a bit of Focus Magic. Taken through 
thick, dirty glass.  We walked into the visitor center, looked out the 
window, and there it was.  A British-accented (*) staff member told us 
that some people wait all day to see a glimpse of this bird, and for us, 
he appeared immediately.

(*)  Why is it that half the staff at all Audubon Society places are 
British?
