Mike and I thoroughly enjoyed our recent visit to the Wetlands! The sights and sounds we experienced have us longing to drive out there again very soon. Red-winged blackbirds hunted insects on the wing and occasionally landed in the cattails just in front of the bird blind we stood in, and croaking frogs and a myriad of blooming wildflowers flanked the path we walked on.
Only 1 more picture to post to complete my 365 project!
Fabulous lighting, timing, dof - the whole enchilada! I've never caught the colors on both wings open like this - and the tasty insect is such a neat bonus! Fav
Such a fabulous capture Janet, the comp and dof are perfect to make this Hunter the star of the shot. Congrats on being 1 day away from completing your first amazing year. :)
