Courting Wren
Sorry for the following abbreviated post. There's an awful lot going on around here lately. (Expect a rather exciting blog entry shortly. In the meantime, Amazon Kindle info makes for great reading! (Yeah, pun intended.))
Back to the birds...
I set up the usual Olympus camera/tripod arrangement today and went about the routine... (Earlier, a beautiful Red-bellied Woodpecker had been on the suet feeder, and I wanted to get a shot should he return.) No luck on the woodpecker, but a Carolina Wren appeared on the deck rail doing its weird mating dance. (Yup, the birds are already starting mating dances and scoping the birdhouses.) Anyway, I swung the camera around and managed to get this shot of the wren in all his preparatory procreative glory.
Sometimes you just get lucky.
See you by the feeders, and expect the unexpected!
