Captured this little one in the lilac tree, I thought the poise was kind of cute.

Some cropping was done, but I did like the more natural capture of this one.

Thank you for commenting.

Very sharp focus on the bird and it looks beautiful sitting up there like that. Lovely shot Sandi.

Your lilac bush makes a great studio for the birds Tigz. I like the coloring and clarity in this photo.

Strange as I think as I have seen this very one this morning. Boris is my witness - I did !!!
Or perhaps the yellow was more at the belly area ...
What can one do ? LOL
This is one of the loveliest, indeed, and as far as the quality of pictures, then probably the best.

I love the way this little fella is framed in the branches and how the tiny buds are ever so suggestive of spring. Another beautiful piece of work :)
