The "walks" of Brewer's blackbird

Thought I'd share this series of walks, it made me smile

Excellent series with bgeautiful BG!
The #1 is my favorite.

Is that bird's name John Cleese?

Fun series Joe.

beautiful, really like 1,4 and 5. such color, it's incredible.

Absolutely beautiful walking series Jodelak! It's a blast when your subject walking towards you, isn't it?

Excellent series Jodelak. Love the procession of shots. So sharp of detail also.

Lot's of natural detail in these shots, excellent clarity... looks like his walk paid dividends.....


Dave

Very nice shots, these guys always act like they own all the property for miles around.

Thanks Lil, yes this bird demonstrates some JC character, I think the bird has an accent too!

Thanks Fee, the walkway around the pond is elevated, I was just sitting inside my car with my camera and my view is the same level with the walkway. And since I am inside the car the bird completely ignored me

Thanks Dave, sun was out but because there are some clouds is not as harsh as direct sunlight, which I think contributed to nicer color of the bg.

Thanks Sharon, yep, this bird is the boss of his land

Love `em jo!
I think all blackbirds have a funny gait about them and you captured quite a variety of "gaited" postures in fine fashion. I think the ones where he's heading towards the camera give me the biggest smiles.

Nice Jo! He is prancing around. lol Number 5 makes me think he's thinkin' "Hey you with the camera...wait right there"

Love it Joe~

Thanks Steve! Because this was in a park, they are so used to people that they just walk around like no other's business

Thanks Craig, you got it right, prancing was the right word

Thanks Flo

Ha, great series Jo, that is one determined looking bird!

Imitating rain to lure worms to the surface. And he was successful! A great sequence of shots, Jo. These birds seem to have the same kind of character as Crows. At least when I see you guys post shots of them I always think how much they look like Crows.
