Brian Morin: Great capture, one of the famous Vancouver airport Shorties.
Chris: A little more to add: while looking for a Brambling, we saw what I thought was a Harrier from far away. Completely unconcerned about us, this bird actually approached us, did a few circles above, close enough to woo our 4-year old who has never seen anything of this nature before.

We were moving at a good clip when this guy was spotted. In order not to flush him we backed up a good ways past him, then approached to a reasonable distance gauging whether he was nervous. After a few pics we moved off without causing him fly. Near Benton Lake NWR, Montana.
