SCISSORTAIL

North Richland Hills, TX

It was freezing at lunch...the wind blowing about 30 mph so I shot this from my car window. Only thing I shot all day. I'm home and warm now!
Completely straight out of the camera...only thing I added was my name.

Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi
1/160s f/7.1 at 260.0mm iso200 full exif

other sizes: small medium large auto

Wonderful! When I was a kid in Texas we had tons of these in the tall-grass cow pasture. Now I hear they're endangered. Fabulous shot of a Scissor-tailed Flycatcher - this one was all you needed to keep you warm all day!

Never seen a such bird before. You must have very clean windows, because the quality of the image is impressive. Superb capture.
