A cute little bird I "bump" into while on a camping trip in Algonquin park past weekend. Never seen one before so this is a first for me.

Very cute bird indeed, and you did a fantastic job capturing it. I've never seen one before. Nice job Tom.

Okay, I'll be the first to say it....'Veery' nice shots! Hahahaha, couldn't resist. Seriously, those shots are great, nice and sharp. Beautiful bird that is.

Great picture - unfortunately, one really needs to hear the Veery to apperciate it's true beauty.

I agree on both counts. My wife and I call the Veery the "Price is Right" bird because it's call is a desccending trill reminiscent of one of the TV Show's background melodies. C'mon down!

Here's another who agrees with this! Nice shots of a species I only ever see deep in the very shaded woods...

Thank you all for looking and the comments. It is true about the song of this bird... very very sweet.
