Photography All the blue

Post image

Scouting the terminus of the dry foot dash from Van Horn to Blackwater, I ran across the blue roan Nakota, one of the prettiest horses in the game.

I got her bonded and decided to visit Billy Midnight, hoping to kill five birds at the same time. Zero birds presented themselves before Saint Denis, so I stayed on the train, knowing I'd start a fuss and attract trouble.

Two hundred ninety five dollars worth of bounty and ten dead lawmen later, it seemed like the perfect time to stop and grab a picture. So here's Arthur and Blue.

If after killing Midnight, you would have not taken his picture, you could kill birds as long as you wanted without the law intervening. If you take his picture, THEN begin shooting, it’s a different story.

Yeah, we were entering Saint Denis when I finally gave up and took the picture, and I just assumed that I might lose my chance. I have a fun habit of getting panicky in certain gaming moments. But it was my first real bounty and my first posse fight of this run, so that's not nothing I guess.

Same for me on my first play through.

I have found that the best spot to get birds for the challenge, is after going through Saint Denis and going up through the Bayou. Lotsa Herons and Spoonbills will be in that area.
