 | About This Shoot | Date: 24 April 2017 | Location: Huachuca Mountains-Hereford, Arizona | Shoot Type: Wildlife | Rating: | Synopsis: Day 3 of this trip started at Ash Canyon B&B where I photographed at a new photo blind on the property. It was a very windy morning, although that did not seem to deter the birds very much. Lazuli Buntings stole the show, and I am quite pleased with a number of images, including a few gallery-worthy frames. Late afternoon, I attempted to find the ultra rare Tufted Flycatcher at a known location in Reef Campground way up Carr Canyon in higher elevation. I struck out, but did get a distant image of a Buff-breasted Flycatcher. I ended the day back at Tony's backyard photographing hummingbirds in fading light. |
