Kathy-- It was taken in my backyard by the pool. Denis had draped an old tarp over the fence, which is why it almost looks like a studio shot.
Molly-- It's an Abert's Towhee, indigenous to Arizona with one of the smallest bird populations in the world. People spend big bucks to come here to see them, and I have a colony in my backyard that I can watch for free. They are characters and so much fun!
Great capture and lovely composition.
ReplyDeleteWhere was that taken? The background looks like it's draped. I love the colors.
ReplyDeleteWhat pretty feathers all ruffled like bed head in the wind. What kind of birdie is that?
ReplyDeleteBeth-- Thanks!
