Pine tree

After a very long day, met my son and his girlfriend for dinner. Noticed this pine tree, highlighted by the setting sun. It was after I took a few shots that I noticed the bird! Score!

@bardejov Thanks so much for the fav and all your support!!

I like pines too, and the sky is beautiful. I put my finger over the ..ibis is it? Still looks great without it...but still.

[Danette Thompson]

@drewhuy Yes, ibis. The name always escapes me.
