I can see why, Bertie. Nice.
It has a certain natural vignette about it.
Thanks Rod - have to blame the bird for that, framing itself so well

I think we have a brown thrasher nest close to the house, I've saw two of them together on this fence. Hopefully no brown cowbirds will find the nest. The brown cowbirds parasitic brooding has hurt the thrasher population severely.

Nice capture. My small birds in flight are usually leaving the scene - well, more like leaving the frame.

Thank you. With the bright sun, the top bird was starting to look more turquoise than blue.

Thank you. I almost gave up, but decided to stick it out until I took something.

Ah-Ha! That's probably why the thrashers have gotten so scarce here.

One checks out the accomodation, one checks out the neighbourhood.
