Hi all, I thought I had this one figured out. I had held the bird in the hand to warm it after it had struck the bedroom window near the feeder back in September. I found it flat out on its back, feet in the air and presumed it was dead. I held it till it started gripping my fingers in its feet and was able to keep its head up and eyes open. Not wanting to waste this opportunity I set the bird up on a semi-open perch minutes after the sun cleared the horizon. Some unscrupulous bird photographers have suggested I will be seen on the boardwalk at Magee Marsh carrying a fat headed tennis racket in the near future. Suggesting that stunned warblers would be much easier to photograph than flitting fluffs of feathers on speed! This is the image that made me order another box of Provia. This is original Velvia pushed one stop. In EML with Velvia plus the ever mounted warming filter in my 500mm is just too much. For that first hour or so I now shoot Provia. I did a little color correcting with the scan, the original is way over the top with orange light, at least for my tastes. Eos 1v, 500mm IS, 1.4x II, So, which thrush is it? Thanks for your comments and for your ID help. BZ |
