Great Crested Flycatcher 2

    Newer Older

    My backyard on the live oak. Remember the one that I shot through the glass door. Well, this morning this one came and flew all around the yard, posing here and there. This is one of the better shots. Still a severe crop. (400mm L, f/5.6, 1/100, ISO 400, on tripod)

      Hey Ken, this one is a cutie, I must admit. But you always seem to attract the cuties......as far as back yard birds go......"smile"
