Gilbert Riparian Preserve - Arizona

Early morning at the Riparian Preserve
Gilbert, AZ
f/6.3 – 1/400 sec – ISO 320 – Focal length 250 mm

I am not sure which bird on this list this particular guy might be.  I’m also not sure if I was watching him or he was watching me.  But I caught this shot at the Riparian Preserve in Gilbert, AZ very early this morning.  The bird life in this urban refuge is abundant and the photograph opportunities are great.  But aside from a camera you need to bring two things if you are going to the Preserve – bug spray and patience.  Being wetlands the bugs are out in full force and you need the patience if you want more than some nice snap shots of the wildlife.
