belted kingfisher

We’ve seen them at this park (though not in this section) 2 or 3 times in the past flying, and we’ve heard them another 2 or 3 times this year, so super lucky to see them today, even if the light wasn’t friendly, it stuck around for photos. Plus a couple of runners saw me with my big camera and looked, and took photos of their own.

Such majestic assholes.

the big whoomp whoomp whoomp of their wings, and then the muscles in their necks, and the feet flapping at the surface of the water

We have a breeding pair of bald eagles that keep flying super low over the creek near us. I have gotten 0 photos.

challenge with angle 1 - autofocus likes the twigs better than the bird
challenge with angle 2 - autofocus likes bugs better than the bird
