Birds & Blooms

Bells Bend Park

-

in Nashville, Tennessee, has bountiful opportunit­ies for viewing wildlife. While on an early morning summer walk, I observed some incredible bird activity. A male blue grosbeak with an insect let out repeated metallic calls, alarming his neighbors. An orchard oriole pair came to investigat­e the disturbanc­e. Just as the three birds landed on the same stalk, I captured this image with my Nikon D500 camera and a Sigma 150-600 mm lens. Being in the right place at the right time to witness this feather frenzy was truly a magical moment and one that I will always remember.
