Red Winged Black Bird

Yesterday I went on a brief walk around a little water park in between rain drops and I spotted this red winged black bird. They are really skittish so I am pleased that he sat still long enough for me to get a shot of him

I love these birds! I can never get a decent capture - excellent work and a fav for me.

[Ann]

Great capture .shows up awesome with the light background.

[Graham Thresher]

Fabulous shot.

[Milanie]

And he looks really nice against black - I like that they will land (at times) in the tall grasses rather than the tall trees (always the very top)

[Peggy Sirk]

Fabulous shot, Rick! Love the setting!

[Maggiemae]

So many variants of blackbird species! They are really very exotic! Good to see this one nad also learn up about it!

[Margaret Tryon]

I love these birds. Terrific shot Rick.

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I love the songs of the Red Wing so this is a really nice shot since he's right in his element and I can imagine him singing.

[Kerri]

Awesome shot

[Beryl Lloyd]

Lovely textural image !

[Dione Giorgio]

Nicely done, Rick. Well spotted.

[Kathy]

Good shot. I haven't seen to many of these since I moved south.

[Dawn Swingle]

Excellent against all the textured reeds.
