I'm not all that fond of Western Kingbirds. They are noisy and they like to start that noise just before sunrise and carry on and on and on. I was surprised on my walk to find a quiet pair acting a bit odd. They were perched and plainly keeping watch out. I thought it was because of the storm that had just passed, until one flew down to this nest. Ooohhhh... I would have never noticed it was there.
Such a wonderful capture and beautiful light. It just shows you how good it is when one lingers a bit longer. Did you have you iso set to auto April? I am still trying to figure the best setting out ;-)
@ludwigsdiana I did have the iso set to auto. With the birds last month I found I often had to use exposure compensation to get more exposure on the birds. You might want to experiment with that and see what you think.
