We drove to Power, Montana a couple days ago, to see some old vehicles that will be auctioned off in June. Took a wrong turn and roamed around the country side for quite a while, taking pictures. We found this one legged bird on an alkali flat. The actual photo is very clear and sharp, you can see the twinkle in this bird's eye...
I don't know what kind of bird this is, but he was so cute, standing there on one leg, counterbalanced by his long beak. I've since learned this bird is an Avocet!
