Each spring, their amazing motions and curious sounds are what truly mean migration is on and summer is just around the corner.

Urban areas aren’t typically thought of when it comes to exciting birds and places for Nature Photography, however, with a good eye and some knowledge behind it, you can create pleasing photographs that viewers would never have known came from a city environment.
