Red-footed Booby Rookery

[kaneohebud]

I think I over-processed this one. I was privileged this week to be able to photograph in a restricted area that contains a red-footed booby rookery. I have posted a large number of booby photos on my web site from that shoot. As a result, I have been asked to do volunteer work as a photographer for the Environmental Department of a large Marine base here on Oahu. They are planning to develop an interpretive display program to highlight their work at preserving the environment aboard a large Marine/Navy air base. They have won many national awards for their environmental accomplishments and now I will be able to document it in photos. This is a win-win situation for this will give me access to restricted areas that contain a wedge-tailed shearwater colony and marine wildlife. Exciting opportunity!

Nice shot of an interesting bird. Congrats on the opportunity to photograph in those restricted areas. Looking forward to seeing some of the shots!
