JULY 19

Sugar Land, TX

Photo is gritty because I took it through the screen door.
I was about to leave for work when I noticed 3 Monks taking turns in my squirrel feeder.
Two would eat, while one served as lookout on the fence top.
They took turns on watch duty, so everyone had a chance to eat.

1/160s f/5.6 at 120.0mm iso800 full exif

Beautiful birds. Must be smart too. They remind me of parrots. Love this and I can't tell you took it through a screen door. V.

Excellent capture Lynn. This is a switch from my experience where the squirrels steal from the bird feeders. v

This is such a terrific photo. First, the subject is really cool, then the composition is intriguing... one of the birds seems to be communing with the sun/moon. Great shot! V
