Mary, They never stop moving so your timing here is great. Love the low profile, the flufted up feathers. The eye makes it for me.

I love these little birds and especially when they puff up like this. This is awesome!!

Wonderful shot, especially the fluffed feathers and the OOF band of grass just behind the bird. It looked familar, even before I read your text. Do you know if Artie or someone else posted a similar one?
