Some nice shots of a lovely Red-winged Blackbird (male) exhibiting preening behavior + lots of shaking/flapping. Presque Isle State Park, Erie, PA.
[Photo Editor’s note: tough to capture both black feather detail + ‘stop motion.’ These shots mostly @ 1/2500 sec in spot metering mode + exposure compensation +0.3-+0.7, + auto adjustment in Adobe Lightroom then manual contrast adjustment.]
cue the dance music! ooo, that shakin’ and a flapin’!!!
Really nice to see a RWB close up and details!
