Grabbed my camera when I saw this guy on the suet plate. Unfortunately, there was no card in it. By the time I got the card, he flew off and was almost out of range. This is severely cropped. Hint: The eye glints were barely visible in this image. I zoomed in on the eyes in Photoshop, chose the Dodge tool and set it for 100% and "highlights" and clicked in the glint area to lighten it. Glints are important!
An Eastern Blue Bird... You're very lucky Isabel, ther are not that many around. I had a couple who spent last summer here in my gardens... They're cousin to the Robins. They have a "funny"particularity, they like to make their nest on top of old fence posts, those that are "empty" in the middle ! I always thought it was not a very protective way to make a nest... but they must know something I don't !
