Blue grosbeak. Been trying to get a shot for years but they are so fleeting in my yard.

Yeah, I had just realized that when I started questioning the wing markings.

Good ones.
Thank you, I was real happy when it landed while I had my camera up to my eye and was ready.

Good capture.
I have that problem because my reflexes have slowed down. It is a bitch growing old!

I have that problem because my reflexes have slowed down. It is a bitch growing old! It don't help that it is a 200-600 with a 1.4 extender, quite a handful to handhold, which most of mine are.
