Red-winged Blackbird
A more traditional BOAS (bird on a stick) shot. One of many red-winged blackbirds that have been frequenting my backyard of late. Taken last saturday.

400 mm (640 equiv), 1/250 @ f/11, ISO 800, AF, HH

Good capture. Appears to have been a bit windy! I am impressed with the lack of noise at ISO 800.

It's nice to see one of these birds alone! Last time I saw one of these birds, it had a lot of friends. Great background.

Nice catch. Looks like it is as windy in KS as it has been in MO. Wish you would keep that wind over there where you are accustomed to it.
