Another Lunch Break

[Loupey]

Same place (same bird?) as yesterday. I think there are two males here. Been trying to capture them in the tall reeds but they are very skitish indeed.

A little more dynamic pose and crop here:

THERE YOU GO! Wait til you see the females in a week or so, they look nothing like the males.

Paul, that's no way to lead on a non-birder (or new-birder). What does the female look like?

I've always wanted one particular shot of the male RWB in a tall clump of weeds/reeds. I've had it pictured in my mind for about 20 years. Perhaps this year...
