Prothonotaries are one of those birds that are just supremely confident of their place in the world. They are willing to share it with us, but it is very much their world. I find it refreshing to be put in my place once in a while. Sony a6700. Tamron 50-400 at 600mm equivalent and about as close as the lens will focus. Program mode with my birds and wildlife modifications.
