Description
Red-winged Blackbird
This marsh bird was photographed on the edge of Malheur Lake, in a tangle of branches. Its mate was nearby. It forages for seeds and invertebrates in fields and pastures. It nests and roosts in marshes. This is a male red-winged blackbird. The female can be mistaken for a sparrow. They migrate in the winter to the Southern US and Mexico.
Malheur Wildlife Refuge has over 300 species of birds and over 50 species of mammals. It is a combination of deserts, grasslands, marshes and rimrock. The Donner und Blitzen River flows north through the refuge and is irrigated out, creating an artificial wetland, of 187,000 acres, in what used to be a natural wetland. Malheur Lake is the remnant of a Pleistocene lake that is estimated to have been about 900 square miles with a depth of 35 feet. It is a beautiful area with geographical diversity and teeming with wildlife.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new, by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.
I currently reside in Oregon, an environment rich in nature's graces. I have lived in California and New York, too, and everywhere there is a world of beauty around us, if we care to take the time and look for it.
