Finally - Not on the High Wire

Love the scissortails - and glad I caught this one in the field for a change with his tail split. Had a good close-up one, but liked his setting here.

Beautiful bird! A great angle to capture him at - I guess we're looking at the more interesting aspect of his plumage and you've caught him looking our way too.
