I went to the local wetlands the other day to bring a buddy out shooting with his new camera. I told him not to expect much. I was wrong. I got my 2nd bobcat in a week along with these birds.

I'd say it was a very good day, Jeremy. Love that Tropical Kingbird!

Thanks everyone.
This place is a nice small spot in Tucson AZ.
But about 100 miles away up in Phoenix there is
A similar place that is much bigger and has a much better variety.

Once you shoot there, this Tucson place seems lame.
However there are always things to photograph.

Great set Jeremy, beautiful Herons and the RWBB has great exposure, plus all the Icing on the cake, flying or not. A grand day indeed!

Thanks Bret.

Looking back on the RWBB I think I should have pulled the reds a little bit. It looks a bit burnt to me but it could be my monitor. Hindsight is 20/20.
