Purple Martins and Red Winged Blackbirds

[coastalconn]

The light has been pretty crappy lately, but I decided to go check out the Purple Martins that return around this time. I've also been building up a library of RWBB this year as they hang out where George lives so I stalk them when George is just hanging out doing nothing.. Thanks for looking and comments welcome..

Kris, great shots. It is very hard for me to pick a favourite. That last one looks like it is telling you to "go away and leave me alone!"

I love watching Martins. They are active and pretty. Nice shots of them! That's got to be the best female/juvenile? RWBB I've ever seen!

Nice! I can't get a RWBB in the clear for nothing.
