I thought I might never capture this flight posture in a songbird during my entire career as a bird photographer. For me it’s only happened a single time and it very likely won’t happen again.
If you’re using a DSLR camera you aren’t photographing what you’re seeing through the viewfinder. Two days ago that phenomenon was responsible for me photographing a magpie that I had no clue I’d photographed.
Please do not pin my images on Pinterest, Tumblr or any other pinning site or social media or use them for anything else without my express permission (and that includes using them as models for paintings, drawings or tattoos etc.).
