Nice catch ... you WERE lucky to have that camera handy!<br /><br />I was refilling the fountain today and had a juvenile pine siskin land on the hose near my hand and a chickadee right on the fountain in front of me. They do love that fountain.

I have never seen one... They are so pretty!!!! I would have thought it was a Pine Warbler myself... Glad you found out what it 'really' is...<br /><br />Thanks for sharing such a beauty with us... I saw a new bird at my suet feeder today... i knew it was a woodpecker --but it's coloring was different. Ended up that it was a Juvenile Red-headed Woodpecker. It has a dark gray head instead of the red.... Really surprised me!!!!<br /><br />Have a great evening.<br />Hugs,<br />BetsyBetsy Banks Adamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16223591156634767330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-32944061785606188302010-08-16T20:01:59.885-04:002010-08-16T20:01:59.885-04:00beautiful bird!
