Greetings. I did get some shots of a Prothonotary yesterday. I put a couple here:http://s153.photobucket.com/albums/s226/sjlarue/Birds/ The first is a watercolor that I made of a of a shot that came out a little soft. I have found that the softer shots seem to work better for watercolor. The second is a side light shot. In addition to the Cuckoo, the Osprey and the Prothonotarys mentioned in Charlie's Post, while there I also saw some Yellow Rumped, and Palm warblers. A dozen Blue Gray Gnatcatchers, a pair of Orioles, and a pair of Kingbirds finish out the short list.
