This morning I checked Wickham Lake and Glenmere Lake. There wasn’t much exciting going on at either lake, so I headed over to the Black Dirt Region, where I found my first Lapland Longspur, Snow Buntings, and Cackling Goose of the season. Other than that, I was just hoping to get some photos for the day – I finally got lucky with some American Pipits in the nice morning light, and I thought a flock of Red-winged Blackbirds in a field of dead sunflowers made for some interesting images.






I LOVE the pipit shots, and the Blackbird photos have a painting-like feel to them. Great work!
Thanks Silas. I’m really digging the blackbird photos – you never know how these things will turn out when you take them. Matt
Beautiful shots as always! Your photography is pure art!
Wow Dave, thanks! I like this week’s shots too – some days it just works out. Matt
