I’ve always wanted to get a photo of a Red Winged Blackbird in this type of environment. I captured this one a few weeks ago at White Rock Creek in Dallas.
Captured with Canon 7D and Canon 400mm 5.6 L sitting on my Induro CT314 Tripod.

Very good photo. It is so hard to get the lighting right with these birds (I haven’t succeeded, yet) and the background is nice and uncluttered.
Thanks Bill.
This was one of those rare opportunities where the bird sat still, the light was pretty good and I just happened to be setup for a shot
