First time in 2 years I was in position for this guy when he landed at my setup in the backyard! I don't know if they're the same everywhere but at my house these birds are very nervous and tend to vanish at the slightest motion or sound. They also usually fly straight to the feeder and avoid the setup perches so I was tickled to get a shot at this one even though it was only a few frames.
