Snow Bunting
My first bird of the year is one of my favorite winter visitors, the Snow Bunting. Three birds were feeding in the rocks and weedy areas along the Lake Michigan shoreline. Since I rarely get these birds off the ground, I was happy to see one bird pop up on this rock for a few seconds. The birds were very nervous and only stayed for a few minutes before flying off.

love the composition on this Emil.. Great first of the year bird for sure.
Thanks Jamie.
I really like your Snow Bunting composition. Different from many of your pictures, but it works! The shape of the rock compliments the Bunting – together they work together to create a wonderful photograph. Award Worthy!
Thanks Mike.
