This bird is using the leaf as a bird stool I guess.

The Skate The Bay International Speed Skating Marathon was held here on Irondequoit Bay this past weekend. I went with a group of friends to see what it was all about and I was able to capture this skater in a reasonably sharp image. He was the lead skater and was well ahead of all the competition. I've seen a lot of pictures from the competition of these speedskaters and noticed no fine details in the faces of the skaters. In contrast my Olympus equipment even lets me see the 5 o'clock shadow on this skater's face. This is my first effort at any kind of sport related photography.
