Ah! the perils of being a bird photographer . . .

About: Kentucky Color: The Great Holly Berry Heist

To ColumbiaMagazine.com:

A friend of mine sent me the link to this article....As I was having my morning coffee, I read about the antics of the bird thieves with their stolen holly berries. The author's fear of being bombarded by reprocessed holly berries brought back recent memories for me. One evening, while I was out taking pictures of buildings in the Theater District in Houston, the birds exploded all around us. I tried to shoot decent pictures of the bird explosion, as it was taking place around me. Before long, I noticed that the stuff that was falling on my head and my camera was not rainwater. I decided to retreat from the area, and let the birds get a little exposure to the theater.
