I was finally able to get a few shots of this non-stop little bird. There were a pair in our tree feeding their young. Thanks for looking.

Nice shot Brad, they are cute little birds, and hard to catch them sitting still for long.

They are tough to catch, huh? Good shooting. You must have great reflexes.

Really nice shot Brad, love to see the birds in their environment. This little guy reminds me of my warblers.

Thanks Harvey, Yes they're tough to catch. I had several images with no bird in them. :lol:
