Red Shouldered Blackbird

For me, the perfect way to bird-watch and take wildlife pictures is the auto tour at Hagerman National Wildlife Refuge. I always see a ton of birds and every once in a while deer out there.

Last summer I happened to be driving around when I stumbled across this little guy sitting on the sign. He wasn’t scared of me he just sat there and watched me until I got bored and left.

About the Image

I used my Sony a6000 and my Sony SELP18105G E PZ 18-105mm F4 G OSS lens. The image was then edited with Adobe Lightroom CC, Topaz Labs Denoise AI and Topaz Labs Sharpen AIAurora HDR (no longer available but still a great product), and Luminiar Neo (partner discount codes: JJOHNSTPHOTOG10 – 10% off or JJOHNSTPHOTOG    –  $10 off) to clean up the images.
