Chipping Sparrrow

2020 certainly had more bird photographers using their backyards as a canvas, I among them but it wasn’t new for me, I have been shooting in the backyard for years.  It is convenient and such a great way to relax for an hour to two, sometimes a bit too convenient as I easily get distracted when cleaning, cooking, etc. when I see the flutter of a bird through the windows or see a bunch of activity in my birding area.  This little one was one of those distractions.

Mr. Blue

Male Blue Grosbeak who has spent the summer in our woods. I will miss the flash of his and the Mrs. Blue when they head off soon to Mexico for the winter.  

At least they get to go somewhere for vacation ;)
