122-May 2-On The Hunt
I went into Iona Beach today hoping to spot a Yellow-headed Blackbird. I wasn't holding out a lot of hope as the past couple of times I have been there I either dipped on a sighting or spotted one so far away a photograph was impossible. Today however I hadn't even stepped out of the car and there was one waiting for me. Not only was he waiting but he hung around for a good long time while I took pictures. I love it when bird co-operate.
2022 Photo Bird Count Yellow-headed Blackbird
A while back a Flickr friend said he was gong to try and photograph all the birds he spots this year. It sounded like such a fun project that I decided I would do the same. As birds never stay still long enough for that ideal photo I expect there to be a lot of so/so shots. Possibly a few decent ones and then the duds which will have no other purpose than to be record shot. I have held off posting any photos to the album thinking I may get better shots later but now have decided it is time to take the plunge. Either way it should be fun to see how this turns out.
