My first flight shot of a Snipe. I was shooting at at it while it was perched on a fence post and got this one frame as it took flight.

My number one target every Spring are the Wilson's Phalarope. The conditions were perfect finally! This area had sheeted over with water. The last time this happened was 2018 when it was a very wet weathe. This year's weather was historical as far as snow. When we arrived we saw several of them feeding on the road and overflowing ditches. Lighting and tame behavior made them easy targets. When we left 4 days later the high water on the road had receded. Still lots of water but nothing sheeting on the road anymore. One of two prey shots I got. I have some close up ones to post for later. Click for large view

This beautiful male was my first sighting of this season at the Garden. It was a pleasant spring aftersoon, and he was singing his heart out for several minutes.

As always, thank you so much for stopping by and for leaving any comments or faves, they are very much appreciated.
Yesterday's somewhat unexpected snow must have surprised this Wilson's Snipe, it was not getting any response to its melodious Song.
Bad weather usually results in good opportunities for photography, saw few Moose and Coyotes.
One of the most cooperative shorebirds in Alberta, allows ample time to all photographer to fill there memory cards and even comeback the next day to snap some more portraits.
This and all my fall warbler posts to come were photographed in my new country yard in between unpacking stuff from our moving boxes. A lot of Wilson's passed through during the first couple of days after the move.
