I don't know how anyone spots these things. They're so remarkably camouflaged. Great capture of this fabulous bird! tfs!

Gosh!!! You've started off well Andr!! I didn't think there would be many 'first for Opus' pictures needed for North American birds!!

A super picture you got too - very well done my friend.

Guess you've returned home now?
