Yellow-headed Blackbird

While visiting Iona i decided to see if i could get any decent shots of the Yellow-headed blackbirds that are back at iona for their yearly visit and while i get shots every year, it's still fun, (but i only dedicate one session to them per year nowadays).
I saw a couple of males, but no females yet that i could see.

Ran across a couple of photogs dressed in camo who looked to be setting up for the blackbirds as well, i felt a little inapropriately dressed, wearing my flannel plaid work shirt (which i wear for the hummingbirds, the red plaid bits have attacted more than one curious hummer in close and personal ).

They seemed to have picked the best corner as i saw a bird land in close a couple of times and i saw flash going off but the corner i was in was low yield.
Thought about packing it in but noticed a bird coming in about halfway between me and the other photogs, i moved over a bit (not wanting to get too close to them) and suddenly had the perfect look in front of me
