There's blue, then there's BLUE!*

Black Forest, CO

I had a dream last nite that I'd take this shot. I waited for an hour and a half; gave up, went in the house, looked out the window and there he was. He waited for me to sneek out and get close enough to take the shot.

Thanks, it was worth it. Funny, tho that he didn't come until I quit waiting for him. Its an Eastern Bluebird. We're lucky to have 3 pair nesting nearby ":^)

All right, we're on a clothesline roll! I really like the composition and the subject is fantastic. The bird's color reflected both in the jeans and in the background. Good for you for hanging in there until you got the shot, it was well worth it. -Michael

What kind of bird is that? It's gorgeous :) Wow, a fulfilled dream. That's so neat and the shot is so on-topic! Jim H.
