Alan,

This is really a great shot!! I especially like the composition and how the bird and perch are set against the background.

Super sweet. :D

OK, Enough is enough!!!, Not only is this one of your perches but how in damnation you get all these birds to come and perch in your yard ?? Is this a bird sanctuary ? , or are you offering this guy rotisserie chicken??

Hey Alex, This is not in my yard, unless your call South Texas my yard. I live on the Upper Texac Coast, about a seven hour drive away. I wish this was my yard. Thanks buddy.

I have to admit...you're rapidly moving up the "I hate you" scale. Another one like this and you'll be at the top. Show me a bad picture and I'll take you off my list. Beautiful in every way. Now...did you bring the perch back with you?

Happy New Year!!!
