This is one of the Male scarlet Tanager that hung around at the farm this past summer. He is going through a malting pieride where he become very similar in colored like the female before the migration. He's losing his red for the yellowish or green drabish coloration. The images aren't the greatest but you can see the transformation that this bird go's through. Scarlet Tanager images #28, #29 and #31
These last two image I have used before recently but you can see what the male looks like in spring and summer. Enjoy, MT :)

The Trojan Horsemen
These fella's are know as the Trojan Horsemen aerobatic team. They are the only 6 plan T-28 formation/acro team in the world. They were at the Rochester Airshow this year but with only 5 ships. These images are a collection of shoots that I took on there second days performance. I did enjoy they're performance and I came away with some neat shoots. There performance was the only one that had blue sky and white clouds in it for the entire performance. I do prefer to have the blue sky in my images. Hope you enjoy these 19 images. Your all going to be happy that I only went to two airshows this year. I may have 6 or 7 post left from the Rochester Airshow to cap it off with some images of the Thunderbirds and some more modern aircraft.
There is more information taken from the official Rochester Airshow at the end of this post. It give you some background on the T-28 aircraft.
House Sparrow #9
An images of a young House Sparrow that was in my back yard. He is perched on the handle of my hedge trimmer that I left hanging on a back fence. I don't take to many pictures of these little bird but they are actually quit common around here and in significant numbers. I pretty much don't pay any attention to them for some reason or another, maybe I just find them a little bland for myself. He's a bird just the same so I thought that I would through him in for today, enjoy :)
