And a good thing for me! Haven't seen many birds other than finches - rest must be hunting umbrellas, but this little bluebird was out before the heavy rain returned. Sure like to give that raincoat a time out.
Precious bird. Gorgeous background. That's what I mean. I have serious bird envy of your. Such a lovely pastel, colorful bird. Sitting alone, out in the open on a fence post just waiting for you to take it's photo. (Though it was probably not until the last hundred yards of your seventh mile. I enjoy my fantasies though.)
