Red wing black bird

[Alfred Forns]

From Viera Wetlands a few weeks ago. Their nesting season was just about over and a few were still hanging around. Being able to lock into this bird was a challenge due to the speed and bg !!!

Comments welcome and much appreciated

I love the angle that you caught here Al! Low profile but with a good look at both wing and tail. Nice job!
