This photograph was made two winters ago in a spruce bog in Northern Minnesota. This male had just flown into the area
where another male was scaling a spruce tree. This bird mugged just long enough for two shutter clicks before it was off
chasing the other bird, then they both went off deeper into the forest. SonyA300, Sigma50/500, iso400, 1/500, f9, removed
a few dust sensor spots from the bg, resized, selective NR on the bg, USM. Comments and critiques welcome.

Shawn Zierman.
