Great shots. Looking at them earlier, I was thinking I haven't seen one of thes birds since I left Virginia years ago......Then I went outside and GUESS WHO WAS SITTING IN OUR NEIGHBOR'S YARD?! (Of course, I didn't have my camera!) Really surprised to see one down here.

Man, the pose in the 1st one is like a once in a lifetime! Bet you were grinning ear to ear when you saw it. Great shots, both.

I was quite pleased and surprised at the same time truthfully. Many of the shots from that evening were focused on leaves because of all the wind we had and the branches on this tree were swaying back and forth. I'm happy if I get one keeper from an outing as of late and the first one was the keeper of that day.

Thanks again everyone for the replies.
