South Lancaster - These birds left the adjacent Cooper Marsh and headed into the nearby field. The young can fly short distances and look for food but won't pass up any morsels the adults present to them. The adult is pretty wet and rather muddy obviously from slogging around in the marsh.

Whitney - Just outside Algonquin Park. Putting on a nice display. The nice earthtone colour is actually earth. The birds preen with mud and where it is iron-rich it is redder. There is lots of sandy-muddy soil in the area. In the late fall there is less of this activity and the birds' flat gray plumage is revealed. I like this look.

Navan - I deliberately tried to get some shots with this background. Because the birds have such an identifiable form, even a silhouette can tell a story.

South Lancaster - Cooper Marsh. Finally. I went for the birds this morning and had the pair in the same area others had seen them. Light was bad (backlight) but the birds were close enough for a good shot. The main issue was all the grasses and bushes in the way. It took a couple of hours to make it work.

Navan - I was hoping for flight shots and got lucky.
