The piece of corn in her beak makes it even more brilliant. Great shot, Laura!

That's perfect especially under those circumstances.

Thanks all! Cindy - yes, I did shoot through a window. Gerry - I was about 20 feet away. I was maybe 10 feet from the window, and it's about 10 feet from the window to the fence. The birds are a little used to me. They hop into the trees when I come out with the food and they return quickly once I've gone back in. They sometimes even "yell" for me to come put out more food! :) I've had maybe 10 different kinds of birds feed here.

Wow, Laura. You're off and running. Great color and clarity. Did you shoot through a window? Cindy

I don't think you can do much better that this Laura. Detail is great. Bea.
