Well, most birds are gone now and basically there is no lighting by the time I get out of work... But I did manage one on a Sat few weeks ago.... So many dark cloudy rainy days around now it seems..
Thanks for looking... C&C always welcome..

Very pretty shot with that Background. Most of my birds are gone too, except I have a bunch of hungry demanding Jays. Nice shot Norman.

Very nice shot. The muted color of the background really makes the blue pop. Good job!

Agreed. Really nice photo here. I am still waiting to post my first Blue Jay, but they aren't giving me much of a chance right now. Maybe time for a peanut run....lol.
