Chris: You managed to get the red colour well. I have trouble with saturation
Brian Morin: I find that red is the hardest colour to properly represent with digital cameras.

Chris: Reminds me of Florida 😊
Brian Morin: They were part of a flock of 40+; great to see. One morning after I had left there was a flock of 400+ on the Tip at Pelee. That is highly unusual.

Shrewsbury - A pair of Magpies were building a nest in the cedars. They are well out of range, with the closest territory near the Manitoba border, about 1200 km northwest. Last year a pair, likely the same birds, bred 90 km further east.

Chris: Another with stunning light
Brian Morin: A pretty bird with early morning light. The colour looks very different on a dull day so I'm glad the light was in my favour.
