First Flight...Japanese White Eye

alohabob · 1st of July 2009 (Wed)

At the park yesterday, I saw something fall from a tree but it didn't fall like a leaf. Then he took a couple short 10' flights and finally got into this tangle. Mom watched me like a hawk!

Thank-you Sindri! It's taken a while to get used to this 50d but I'm getting the hang of it.
