American White Pelican at the pond. Always fun seeing them this close! Hope to get a shot of them flying someday :)

Shot on Fujifilm 400.

This Canada Goose had a lot to say 📢🪶

Been working on getting lower with my shots lately. I'm really liking how it makes the subject pop against that creamy bokeh.

Nailed this shot of a seagull mid-flight! 🪶 This is a proud moment for me. I shoot with a fully manual 500mm lens, so getting birds in flight sharp is a challenge. The challenge makes shots like this very rewarding :)

If you don't like magpies, you're wrong. That's how opinions work... ;)

Here are some birds I photographed recently. Left out the raptors. See alt text for species. #birds #utahbirds
Black capped chickadee. Their call is a cute "Weee hooo" American Goldfinch. Less common here than the Lesser Goldfinch, which is less golden but more common. Lady Red Winged Blackbird, posed so nicely. While not colorful she's quite lovely. Great Egret. Unlikely to kill you, but he could.

Red-winged Blackbird performing for everyone from his cattail stage.

#RedWingedBlackbird #BirdPhotography #UtahBirds #WildlifeWatching #LumixS1 #500mm #Birds
A male Red-winged Blackbird clings to a cattail stalk, beak open mid-call. The bird is black with a noticeable red and yellow patch on the wing. The background is a blur of green leaves and branches. Another shot of the same Red-winged Blackbird in a leaned forward position, still vocalizing.

Got this cool shot of two Canada Geese out at Sugarhouse Park. One of them just finished a sip and let it drip. Was a good day at the lake, I'll be back
