Blackbird & Crow

Chincoteague, Virginia

This Red-winged Blackbird was very annoyed with the crow.
I heard their dispute long before they appeared above the reeds.
This was the only photo that I was able to capture before they were gone.

Canon EOS 350D ,Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM
1/2000s f/7.1 at 400.0mm iso400 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Nicely done! I find black plumage birds quite difficult to photograph but I see you had no problems at all. Great work and great moment.

Amazing that he even tries to go after that crow, considering the size of the crow as compared to his own size. Great catch!

This is absolutely wonderful. I have seen so many dances like this (not with the beautiful male blackbird though) and never had a camera in hand. This is elegant, humorous and a damn good photograph. Good contrasting work. g
