Until this photo it had been only the male to show up in the yard. The light was real filtered by a dense cloud cover and it shows, but hopefully not to the point of distraction.

Jeremy, you are very kind. Thank you. I think that I just may stay with what I have right now in camera bodies and maybe just focus upon glass.
