Lots of yellowheads at the farm pond this year. About an hour after sun rise they were really making some racket.

    Very well done! clap.gif

    In animal photography it's a good idea to capture what the animal does. Most animals, eat, hunt (eat), mate, protect territory, and some will play.

    Looks like you have a bird that is either looking for a mate or protecting (announcing) territory.

    Nice job.

    Beautiful shot. I like the pose and the fact that it is singing.
