I escaped for a little while this afternoon before they caught me and brought me back.

Stunning colors on the Oriole Shawn and the Crab Apple blossoms truly help that House Sparrow look good. I'm glad you escaped for a short while! Good shooting.

Man, those really say "SPRING" loud and clear! Kinda a high and low of the bird kingdom, but as Lil says, the blossoms help ol' Mr. Sparrow a lot. Beautiful shots, Shawn.
