Caught the Good Light

Was a toss up whether to post this or a squirrel shot I liked, but loved the early light on the scissortail flycatcher - showed up his beautiful colors so nicely. And besides, he sat patiently on the tree limb for me to shoot for the first time so deserved the honor. Not quite as skittish as usual.
