Male Sharptail in native grass. Not very many leks in native prairie. Ranching has taken a toll. Most leks now are on grazed native grasslands.I like shooting these guys in native grass. Gives a different feel. Back story I always like finding new leks. Been looking off and on through the winter for this group of birds. Earlier this spring finally narrowed it down and was pleasantly surprised to find it in native grass. As we have been through a severe drought most leks look like a desert having been grazed on top of no moisture. Processed with Dpp 4, Photoshop,Topaz noise. I think I removed a few grasses in front of the bird. Comments and critiques welcome.
