Photo of the Day! Yellow-headed Blackbird

Nikon D90, Sigma 150-500mm OS @500mm

Yellow-headed Blackbirds are one of my favorite birds to photograph. They have a distinct call that sounds like a old train whistle. One of the down sides is you often need a boat to get close to them. On the plus side, you can bring the fishing pole!

"2009 Photo Favorites Series" Yellow-headed Blackbird

This is the first of a series of videos where I briefly talk about my favorite photographs from 2009. This is my favorite Yellow-headed Blackbird photo. It's fitting that this video is complete because Derek and I have been out chasing these cool birds all week. There may be a video of that coming too...
