Friday Feathers - Flubs
Look! Up in the tree! What IS that orange thing up there?
It was a bird I'd never seen before, so I stood there for a few minutes craning my neck, my eyes locked onto it, watching as it flitted from branch to branch, completely forgetting about the camera in my hands. It then occured to me that I should take some photographs.
I wouldn't know what type of bird it was until closer inspection of the photos I took. A quick check to my bird guide brought the surprise that it was a Baltimore Oriole. I'd never seen one before. When I viewed the shot at 100 percent, this is what I saw:
*bummer*
I've not seen an oriole since.
