crouching photographer, hidden yellow-throat

[squirl033]

i think this little yellow-throat thought he was safely invisible, hidden among the branches of a willow tree... he sat there while i got the lens on him locked the focus and took some shots. after about 10 frames, i think he heard the shutter clicking and decided he'd been discovered, so he took off and disappeared into some tall grass...

Nice, Rocky. The males are really beautiful. One of my favorite birds

The last shot is him saying 'Look out everyone! There is a photog about.'
The lighting is really nice on these shots.
