Soaking Up the Sun

As I was turning a corner on my way home today I thought I saw a fat little bird in the bush. I checked the rear view mirror, backed up, whipped out the camera.and lined up a shot. He sat there fat and sassy just for me. He was still there when I drove off

Tough little territorial guy! With an attitude that comes across in this photo! Beautiful catch, Katy. :)

[Deb]

Nice shot! It looks like he is trying to ignore you :)

[Debbie Orlando]

Super job, Katy! Glad he was cooperative for you!!

[Debbi M]

Great shot! Beautiful contrast

@karenann I hadn't really noticed the attitude but I believe you are right! Thanks, KarenAnn!

@deburahiru ;~} Maybe he was trying to ignore me! I took his picture anyway! Thank you Deb.

[katy]

@debsphotos I think he was just tolerating me, Debbie! Thanks so much.

[katy]

@debbim I appreciate it very much, Debbi

Interesting shot. Birds are so nice to shoot with a nice camera. :)

[katy]

@after12 LOL! Yes they are!

[bruni]

Beautiful white breast and nice colored wings..any idea what kind it is?

[katy]

@bruni I really don't know but maybe a mockingbird!

[Reem F]

He's cute :) Great catch!

[Terri]

Very nice shot. I think he looks a bit annoyed though.

[Darlene]

What a great close up photo, nice and clear with beautiful color.

@reemo Thanks, Reem. It was almost a "drive by" shot and I was surprised he stayed there for it. Usually by the time I get set up they fly away! ;~}

[katy]

@madamelucy I have to agree. After I saw it he did look a little peeved! ;~} Thank you for your comments, Terri.

[katy]

@darsphotos Thanks, Darlene. I appreciate it so much.

[Mike O]

Pretty bird!

[katy]

@trumpetman I really can't take credit for that,Mike! ;~} Thanks anyway.

[katy]

@darsphotos Thank you for the FAV too! ;~}

[MaryBeth Dailey]

I agree with Karenann! He is looking fierce! I love mockingbirds! Even if they are attack birds. I had to fav this! So sharp and just love his attitude!

[katy]

@espyetta Thanks so much MB. I appreciate the compliment coming from the queen of bird shots. Thanks for the FAV too.
