Look Out Below!

I saw some Bushtits congregating below a bridge at Delta Ponds, where water and flowers were found and some large bushes nearby to hide in. They seemed to like this spot. I stood there for a while till they got comfortable with my presence. Then I shot pictures as they moved quickly to the rocks and water and just as quickly flew back to the safety of the bush. It was fun to watch them, though they are pretty small birds for my eyes. I got this shot of one coming in for a landing with two others in the landing zone. No mishaps to report!

Wow, great timing. Takes lots of patience. They never sit still and it's hard to predict where they will go.
