Black-throated Blue Warbler, Setophaga Caerulescens

This shot is a tight crop on a high ISO image, but I was lucky to get it. Well after the sun had set, I had just enough light to grab this shot (and a couple other really blurry ones!) of this little guy before he flew away. He's a Black-throated Blue Warbler. The best part? I got the shot while sitting on my deck at home! Maybe he'll be around tomorrow too so I can try to get a little cleaner shot.

Recent Bird Photography Trip

While the vast majority of the shots I took on a recent bird photography trip to the coast were of waterfowl (coming in a later post), I did grab this painted bunting as well. I've always loved these birds. They're probably the most colorful bird in North America.

Gallery show at Pack Place

I was pleased to have several entries accepted into the annual Carolina Nature Photographers' Association's juried photography exhibit held at the Pack Place Gallery and Museum in downtown Asheville. I should have blogged this sooner, as the show has already come and gone, but felt so privileged to have been a part of it, I still wanted share some photos with you.... be sure to not miss it next year (I'll blog it sooner, I promise!). I was honored to have had my prints included among some of the best nature photographers the Carolinas have to offer... including my dad! Here are some of the images I had hanging in the show...
