The reason this is one of my favorites is that every summer for 25 years I have heard Wood Thrushes, but never been able to see one. They most often sing from the tops of tall trees and are not conspicuous. I was so fortunate to have my tripod and equipment set up when one suddenly appeared on a bare branch in front of me and began to sing loudly. I was unable to change position or any of the settings for fear of frightening it away, but I did get a the shot.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
