Mixed flock Red-winged Blackbirds captured by Z 9 / Z400f4.5 w/Z1.4x
Every year there seems to be bigger and bigger flocks and every year they grab my attention. The huge flock of Red-winged, Brewer, Yellow-headed Blackbirds and Starlings gather and often fly in mass, at times creating murmurations. Based on the background, I either just watch with amazement or pick up the camera and shoot. This morning long before the sun was up they were gathering. I knew the shutter speed wouldn’t stop the action, nor would my panning so I let things fall where they may. A number of blurs hit the trash can but a couple caught me attention. Today, I like it. Tomorrow is another question when it comes to thinkin unconventional.
