    This image was taken at Bear River Migratory Refuge last weekend.

    This is the probably the best time time go to Bear River Migratory Refuge UT for Yellow Head BlackBirds, Grebes, Stilts, Avocets and other Migratory Shore Birds.

    I took lot of images and could not decide which one to post. I do like this one a lot.


    Nikon D500, 500 f/4
    ISO 1520, f/5.6, 1/400 sec
    Manual Mode, Matrix Metering, EV 2/3
    Photographed from Car, Using BLUB

    Hope you like it. Let me know your thoughts and comments.

    Thanks for watching

    Thanks
    Krishna

    I like this. The pose is interesting the head on angle works. Good detail and well exposed. The only thing is the slight merge of the cattail on the left wing.

    Wicked bird and pose. The only reed that bugs me is the one that comes out of the top of the bird's head.

    I pretty much thought exactly what Artie said. I would clone out that one reed. The rest is really nice.

    Hi Krishna,
    Nice pose you captured and I like the head on look. I don't find the reeds very intrusive in the shot given the patterns and habitat. Nice one.
