Lapland Longspurs at Antennae Farm


  On my way home from work this morning I drove past the Antennae Farm on Haggerman Rd., near the Pt. Mouillee State Game Area and found a pair of Lapland Longspurs within a flock of a dozen Horned Larks.  The poor photo quality was due to bad lighting, distance, thermal waves caused by temperature differential between the car and the ambient 15 degree air and as always operator error.

This morning there were a pair of Whitetail does feeding off the Winterberry(?) trees.

  2. Thanks, I just close my eyes and hold the shutter button down and maybe one shot comes out less bad than the rest.
