Ingleside - It is not always easy to tell Greater from Lesser Yellowlegs if you do not have a direct size comparison. Call notes help and I did have those with this bird. Some Greaters have a slightly upturned bill towards the end but this bird does not. Bill length is a useful guide. In the Lesser, the bill from base to tip is about the same length as the width of the head. In the Greater it can be almost 50% longer than the width of the head.

Ingleside- One of the tougher songbirds to shoot. I worked with several before getting one at a reasonable distance staying still for more than 2 seconds. I think it was 2 1/2 :)

Ottawa - what a surprise to get an alert this afternoon about a Western Kingbird in Ottawa. I got the bird a few hours later. Saved me a trip out West :)

Ottawa - this bird has cooperated for observers for a couple of weeks. Most of the time it spends sitting on the water in the middle of the Ottawa River waiting to chase gulls. It lifts off occasionally, puts on a show in hot pursuit. For this shot it was soaring like a gull for about 90 seconds. Very nice of it.
