Red Winged Black Bird Singing

After photographing the eagle, I spotted this little guy singing his heart out from a lone bare branch. As soon as I saw that background, I dropped down quickly and fired off a couple of bursts using pre-capture, hoping to catch him at just the right moment.

I ended up getting him with his beak wide open in mid-song, perched against that beautiful scene of warm orange and yellow bokeh from the setting sun reflecting off the reeds, with a clear blue sky above. For such a small bird, he definitely put on a pretty big show.
