I'm not too sure hazel, like most birds I want pics of she took off before I could really got a look at her.
same with that oriole, and look how the red bellied woodpecker is trying to make itself as flat as possible even though it was about as high in the trees as it could get
sure wasn't in the mood to be photographed.
I am so jealous if you have scarlet tanagers nesting near by, saw my first one today (male) wow he was magnificent.
