Hi, Roger - I had added this photo to my favorites shortly after I joined FAA and began exploring. This spring, the red-winged blackbirds coming back and posturing over their territories reminded me of it - the picture makes me laugh every time I see it or am reminded of it by the antics of the territorial little birds on my farm. They will threaten anything that enters their space, even their own reflection! Thanks for sharing this great capture and giving me many smiles.

Thanks Conni. This is one of my favorites as well. When he landed next to my kayak I couldn't believe it. With my naked eyes it looked like he was standing on water. I didn't see anything there protruding above the surface but the zoom lens captured it. A more fitting title might have been " The Scolding " but I like the humorous one that I gave it. We have had a brutal winter that won't let go. I saw a flock of Redwings yesterday. I know they have been around for a little while but it was my first sighting this spring. No pictures.
