This is a rare find in Wisconsin, or so I'm told.
Overcast conditions presented really poor lighting.
1D MKIV with 500mm f4
Thanks for looking.
Ed

Congrats on a rare find.

Thanks for posting; it's been a couple years since I've seen one, though there are a few reports this winter. You inspire a field trip!

Great find, and knowing your area very well you are right, it was a rare find. Hopefully you can find him or her with better lighting next time. Second one is a nice shot.
