Got the little bugger, finally

[MN Shutterbug]

Went down the street and sat in my blind in my friend's backyard, for a little over an hour. It paid off. This definitely didn't come with the nicest BG, but at least I got him.

Nicely done, X! Patience again pays off!

All of you guys have so much more patience than I do! That's a great image XT. I don't know if I've ever seen one of those in person.

Nice photo XT. Keep em coming.

Thanks, guys. I went back after dinner and got a couple more, that I like even better. Unfortunately, I can't upload to Flickr, for some reason. Their site must be having a problem. I'll try again at a later time.

Nice shot! I like how you can see the color pattern on the chest with this pose. I'll have to pay a little more attention to birds when I am in Marshall. I haven't spotted this species yet.

I've had RBGB's all over my bird feeder the last couple weeks. They males sure are striking with cardinals and goldfinches all feeding together.
