Sniping a Roadrunner
I'm engaging in a bit of competitive birding with the other eBird users in Los Alamos. We compete to see who can find the most species within the county. So when I hear that one of the other eBirders who lives near me has a Greater Roadrunner visiting her back yard every day, I'm not above sniping it with a long lens from across the canyon--even when the lighting is completely wrong.
++species. I'm up to 39 species of bird found in the county so far this year (in the last 3 days), which I'm pretty happy with.
