Male Scarlet Tanager

Beckwith Township, ON

This beautiful fellow chose to groom mere metres from my back deck, allowing me to surreptitiously slip out the back door and get a sequence of shots. This was towards the end of a burst; and he was becoming a bit wary from the sound of the shutter. He flew off a second later!

If you can't be good…be lucky, I maintain…..
