What a pretty bird and an excellent closeup shot.

I now see a bird shot and assume, if it's clear and well composed, that it must be yours! And often I'm right. This one, with the bright orange belly and the rich textured tree branch, looks like you got the bird to pose for you.
Pam: Please move a little to the left
Bird: Your left or mine?
Pam: Yours
Bird: This is my better side and I'd like to cock my head a bit
Pam: I enjoy working with you -- let's try it.
etc.

@taffy Thank you so much Taffy - you do make me laugh!! In fact if you could have heard me talking to the birds saying - come on - please jump onto the branch!! It takes a lot of patience!!

@pamknowler :-)
Jetlag and two broken toes, and mozzies keeping me inside anyway, so my total entertainment is 365 at the moment and I'm enjoying catching up, spending some extra time, and visiting friends' albums! Feels like luxury at the moment as I wait for pain to subside and foot to heal! Good thing I have thousands of photos to work through!!

@taffy Oh no poor you!! I have foot trouble all the time so can sympathise with you about your toes - hope they heal quickly!!
