Composite Photo by Kort Duce An American robin perches atop a sign in Longmont, Colorado. In this vertical color photograph, an old city sign fills the frame, with the bird standing on its upper edge. A graphic logo has been added by the photographer reading “Birders Against Trump.” Within the logo are three stylized birds of varying sizes, each formed in the shape of a raised middle finger. The original bird design was sourced online, while the color scheme and size variations were created in Adobe Photoshop. The background consists of softly blurred tree foliage.

Wilson's Warbler

Was Trump too stupid to understand what the image depicted, or did he lie about it to reporters??

IDIOT or LIAR?

Both.

Bird Photography with the Fujifilm X-T4 and XF 500mm YouTube video by chrisnigrophotography

Here is a youtube video showing samples of bird images with Fuji's X-T4 and XF 500 mm prime lens. I purchased the XF 500 mm 3 months ago and absolutely love it.

Had a great visit to Arizona again this winter. I was hoping to catch a Gila woodpecker on a cactus and this one, at the Riparian Preserve in Gilbert, obliged.
