Marvelous! Photos of birds doing things are much more interesting than pictures of them just sitting on a branch.

Excellent, for the reason Peter mentioned.

Thanks, guys.  I agree with the view that animal (non human) behavior is more interesting to view than static portrait shots.  Mostly,
red-winged blackbirds stand on lily pads and turn over their pads looking for food.  Once in a while they take flight over the lily pads they're searching.
This is the image I captured.
