    Hi Folks

    Another one of about 7 varieties of birds that were visiting our garden this morning. they love the seed I spread in the holes on the dried out Cholla lying around on the ground. This is a male.

    Gus, I like the composition, the pose, and the BG. I suppose the only thing missing is the feet.
    Good idea to put the seed in the Cholla!:)
