Description
I stood for a long time trying to get pictures of several Red-winged blackbirds in a field near my house. I could hear them chirping and chipping in the reeds. I could see some of them, but there was a marshy bog between them and me. So I stood as still as possible trying to be invisible. They were pretty wise to me though and pretty much proved to have gotten the best of me. I stood wishing I had a much better zoom lens for many minutes, but mostly I stood in the cool crisp sunshine and just enjoyed the fresh air and the sounds of nature.
Finally a couple of these guys came closer and I was able to take a few shots . . . and then one of them decided he had enough and he was out of there!

Thank you so much for looking at my images. I appreciate that very much.
I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!

Looks amazing untouched in this version too. Love the contrast against the muted colours of the bokeh in the background. Looking forward to seeing more birds around here shortly, their songs are music during the forest escapades...:-)
