Dreaming

I'd seen it several times before, but wasn't able to capture it, until today,
and even then, I thought I was dreaming! I heard an unfamiliar bird-song
coming from high in the Maple tree. Then, suddenly, this pretty Cedar Wax-Wing
swooped down & landed on the fence and perched there long enough for me to snap
a few shots, all the while wishing for a longer lens ;)

Cracking shot of this colourful little bird, J.G.
You did well with the 70-300. (V)

Outstanding, especially against that wonderful background. Anyone can get great bird shots with a monster lens, but it takes real skill to make do with whatever you happen to have!

Beautifully captured, January. Like the colorful background for this quizzical Waxwing. GMV.

Nice job! These are just so hard to photograph. They don't hang out around people very often.
You're so lucky! I would love to see one up close. :o)
