Hey all,
I am very pleased say that my photograph of a male Bronzed Cowbird was recently published by Cornell University's Lab of Ornithology on their Birds of North America website.
This image came from an April 2008 photography trip to the Rio Grande Valley organized by my dear friend Ashok. On this Friday morning we were among the first to arrive at the blind next to the feeders at the Laguna Atascosa NWR, and these cowbirds were really putting on a show.
