Cedar Waxwings: York County, Maine, USA, March 2024 — I have lots of photos from my encounter with the Cedar Waxwings in town the other day. They were busy picking and eating crabapples…which are just now getting sweet enough for them. The first shot here is a study in how to pick crabapples, if you are an avid Cedar Waxwing, and the second is just celebrating success. OM System OM-1Mkii with 100-400IS zoom at 800mm equivalent. Program mode with my custom birds and wildlife modifications. Processed in Photomator and Apple Photos.

Great Egret: Blackpoint Drive, Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge, Titusville, Florida, USA, January 2024 — These are the last two shots I took on my first full day in Florida in January, on my second loop around Blackpoint Drive. Late afternoon. The Egret was fairly close, along the road, and I could not resist. OM System OM-1 with 100-400IS zoom at 506mm equivalent.
