    Default special moment

    I was out shooting baby bushtits this morning, as I have been seeing them and wanted to get some record shots at the very least. I did get some good ones and will post one in ETL. After I was done shooting, I put the camera away and was talking to my daughter on my cell phone, leaning up against the garage door frame. While I was talking, this little cutie landed on my arm and just sat there and chirped away. I was so surprised I didn't know what to do and my daughter said "use your cell phone!", so I did! Not great quality from the phone camera, but at least I got a memory that I will always cherish. :)

    Hope everyone is having a great holiday. As a Vietnam veteran, I salute those who did not return...

    That is one tame little guy. Is this an adult bird?

    Axel, I think this is one of the fledglings! He is quite small. The adults are a bit bigger and rounder. A couple of weeks ago these little ones were about half the size of a hummingbird.

    Funny bird. That's what I call a tame bird.
