~Northern Harrier coming right at the blind, Shawangunk Grasslands, 01\/13\/19.~ <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

QUICK POST: I got out this morning into the early afternoon. I started at sunrise in a blind at the Shawangunk Grasslands, ran for the GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GOOSE in Wallkill, and then ended up in the black dirt. It was cold but for the most part the light was great for photos and the birds were pretty cooperative, which made for a nice day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

~This is one of the reasons I wanted to get a 1.4x extender – these geese are always so darn far away, and this helps to document them. GREATER WHITE-FRONTED GOOSE on the Wallkill River near Wallkill NY, 01\/13\/19.~ <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

~Not always a cooperative bird, I watched this Northern Flicker feed on something deep under the leaf litter for a good 10 minutes. NOFL in the black dirt, 01\/13\/19.~ <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

~This is not a bird I photograph very often. Northern Cardinal in the black dirt, 01\/13\/19. I took this with my 1.4 extender – I think you can tell, but the results aren’t too bad in my opinion. I wouldn’t normally use it for this kind of shot, but I had it on from the Greater White-fronted Goose.~<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
