One of my best trips to Algonquin.
I got most of the species I wanted on the first day
and the second day morning.
Thanks for looking and commenting.

Beautiful shot, Karl! Love the perch and the oof branches in the BG. His beak open is a bonus, too.

I really like this image, especially after clicking to see the sharper uncompressed version. The bit of OOF foliage in the background is a plus for me.

Love the calling pose. Exposure looks good and the blue background sets him off nicely.
