Coincidentally, I heard my first Prothonotary Warbler of the season this morning, while we were out seeking morels. Here's a pic from a few years back; probably not the same one I heard this morning  :)

Now see? That right there is how it's done. Sweet shot, the light is perfect, the focus is dead on, and the bokeh is beautiful.

Just a quick delurk to add to the chorus of folk saying"Fuckin'ell!" at Albatrossity2's Prothonotary Warbler. That is just stunning (and I hate my crappy Tamron 70-300 now)  :angry:
PS I wonder if Lou's giant Canada goose is a cross with a domestic? I guess we'll never know the Anser. (Coat/fetch/etc)

PPS Coincidentally I just found another melanocytically-challenged bird today
HERE

The ducks were in London, but I saw the gull flying around in Edinburgh here for the last week or so. Tracked it down today and was devastated that it wasn't an Ivory Gull. They are occasionally spotted in the UK, but normally live in Greenland, eating decaying walrus carcasses, beached whales and Davetard's used condoms. That would have been one for the life photo list!
