Here's another shot from SE Arizona.  This Curve-billed Thrasher looked pretty surprised when the White-winged Dove flew in to take his perch.  Some food sprinkled on the perch.

Really cool action scene Nate. Either on there own would be nice, but to get both and this interaction is very special.
Thanks for looking,

Very cool. Interesting that they're about to squabble with each other, but are looking at you.
