Red Winged Black Bird Nesting


While walking our Saint Bernard I discovered a nesting Red Winged Black Bird and decided to try and take some photos throughout the nesting/incubation period with the goal of producing several pieces of art.

When I found the nest there hadn't been any eggs laided yet but the female wasn't flying too far away so I knew she was ready to lay. Within a few days the eggs started to appear and she is now sitting on 4 bluish-green spotted eggs.


We will wait for the first to hatch and try and keep our distance so that she isn't disturbed too often.
