The nest is very near and he doesn't want anyone getting too close. Watches me come and go but knows he has a friend behind the patio gate :) Enjoy and thanks for coming by.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

Fantastic. I like how you were able to get the bird into the light, but the wall behind him dark in the shadow. This is a beautiful and very artistic work my friend and I am so glad, you had the time to shot and post it.

How nice to get such a closeup of this adorable mockingbird! We usually have a few around our yard as they are the FL state bird, but I usually don't take too kindly to them chasing away all of my other songbirds when they're nesting, lol. But nothing beats their wonderful repertoire of songs! Love your good shot showing his cute eye Anita.
