I finally made it to Minnesota this past week! State number #43, woo hoo!

I was there to attend a wedding (Zzzzzzzzzz.......) but did manage to make it for a bit of shooting. 

I have no idea if anyone cares, but I've been writing a birding and bird photography blog, The Speckled Hatchback, for the past 3 years. I posted an account of my time in MN on that if anyone is interested. It is at http://thespeckledhatchback.blogspot.com. I do a lot of travel writing on the blog, so maybe some of what I've there written will be helpful for someone. Maybe.

If I'm breaking any rules by sharing this blog, please let me know.

Beautiful shot Dorian, a lovely view of the topside colour shading, and the open bill a bonus!

Little late to the party but had to stop by and let you know how much I like this image.
Nice pose and good details in the darks. Great that we can see the eye well. Well done
