I enjoy photographing bobolinks in the Sandhills of Nebraska mainly because I usually have to walk a lot of fence wire in remote areas to find them!

I think your last shot is the best of the litter.

A bird not many get to see ever. Nice captures on the wire. Thank goodness for the wire.

Thanks NJFrank! Most of the time I find the bobolinks facing me, so the first shot is my favorite!

I actually saw a pair on the ground (behind the wire) but they were in tall grass. It was difficult to see them let alone getting them in focus!

Great set. I've only seen one Bobolink in my 79 years

Thanks Curmudgeon! I have found that they like to stay away from people and pickups which means that they don't like wire fences near dirt roads. They fly away quickly upon being spotted! When I am walking in a remote area they pretty well ignore me if I keep my distance - they likely think I am no more dangerous than cattle walking around.
