    Same Odd blackbird, I went back and got a few more frames this morning
    for the local Audubon... They think it is just leucistic, but it behaves like
    a female, calling and attracting other Males, they agree it is a strange bird..

    D500, 1/3200, f4.5, 420mm (300 f2.8 w/ 1.4tc), iso800

    Hi Dan, interesting bird, suggest you increase exposure as critical head areahas a majority of blacks that are blocked, detail there just underexposed. Also, the epaulets are not this dark? I like the specs of the torso! BG is wonderful

    Pretty nice view of this blackbird. The background is great and like the pose. This one has a nice head angle.

    Great BG and I love the curled toes.Nice and sharp.
    Are the epaulets that odd color due to the partial ?leucistic features of this bird?
    Can you get some more out of the blacks on the neck?

    Great flight shot of this interesting bird. Nice detail, flight angle and bg. You might be able to open up the blacks a bit.

    Great pose and flight angle, I'm guessing these are fairly quick flyers so you're doing well to capture them like you are. Nits already covered above
