Puffy Breast

My visitor this morning -- up close. No blue jays in the photo, but they are planning their attack on the upper branches. The Hawk seems unamused!

Nice shot! love your pov here, and beautiful bird!

@ragnhildmorland Thanks! When he swooped in, it was soooo beautiful. Love hawks -- amazing that it took 365 for me to even notice the birds in my world.

Daryl this is wonderful, its a perfect capture of the wind ruffling his feathers, well done you. Are you still using manual?

@jo13 Today I had to throw it into sport mode, which as far as I can tell, I cannot do without being in Automatic mode (but what do I know!). I WAS trying manual for cardinals, but when I saw the hawk, I switched the dial. Thanks for lovely comments!
