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.

Thanks to Birdviewing partner Lou, we managed 132 species on the trip, many of them photographed. A few got away, such as the painful Juniper Titmouse and the no-show Mountain Quail. We did manage some bluebird photos however these birds are quite skittish around vehicles and especially people. Quilomene Wildlife Area, Washington.
