Red-Winged Blackbird Aeronautics

I definitely have an affliction for Red-winged blackbirds in flight! That red to yellow wing patch is just brilliant to watch cutting the wind on the leading edge of their wings as seen here. Have a great weekend ahead all!

Shot Notes: I will have some more of these in flight from Lowry Wetlands Park in Denver, CO, they are just too much fun to not share. It's one heck of a challenge to catch these guys in flight with my ancient 300 F4 lens with very slow autofocus! ;-)))
