Young Mockingbird

[tom ryan]

Here's a young bird who took some time to pose for me early last week. It was early morning and the light was nice. The roof of my truck provided the support. Thanks for looking...tom

That's a pretty mockingbird Tom. You have to stop posting these great shots, you're killing me with that lens. I can't afford one right now and it really hurts to see these sharp shots....steve

Beautiful bird, super pose, eye capture is captivating to say the very least, this is one clear evidence that a telephone line works extremely well for a natural perch. Really fine shot and I've always really liked this bird even though I've never had the opportunity to photograph it where I reside.
