I'm not terribly good at birds.
Today I went on a birdwalk with other naturalists, and it was a lot of fun (plus being good exercise) because I was learning things the whole time. One of the things I already knew: I'm pants at identifying birds, especially when I can't see them. Birdsong remains a pretty mystery.
The Great Blue Heron is a magnificent specimen of a bird.
The Brown-Headed Cowbird, conditions were absolutely terrible for photography.
I saw a Painted Bunting for the first time, they are stunning in person. Hopefully soon I'll manage a better photo.
