Pretty bird - June 10

I was at the table one night last week and heard this "click click click" sound from the window...looked up in time to see this bird tapping. Princess (our fat house cat) then jumped at it and almost knocked herself silly. The bird flew away.

I grabbed my camera and ran out the door. It sure didn't want it's picture taken even with my big zoom lens. I followed it around the yard, watching it land on both holiday trailers (at windows) and tap tap tap.

Weird.

I did manage to get these three shots. In the first shot, look for the spot of orange...that is as good as I could get before he flew away. Sure is a flashy thing hey?
