p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · American Pipit

I was out kayaking about a week ago, and wasn't seeing much in the way of birds, but then saw a bird on shore which had a yellowish tinge to it. I eventually got on land and slowly approached. It was a very shy bird, and then there was another, and another, and eventually about 20 disclosed themselves as they flew around. I had to get the sun (which was close to setting) behind me, so moved to a location in the logs and just planted myself. Eventually they got closer as they foraged for bugs, and then one perched where I thought it might - payday!

I didn't know what bird it was until I got home and went through a bird book.

Excellent image! I like the description of how you got it. If we only took photos of birds we could ID in the field we would miss a lot of great shots.

Excellent capture, Colin! I love the colors of the bird itself and of the background and their relation to each other.
