Exactly. I guess I should have mentioned that the bird flew from my porch
into a maple and preened for 15-20 minutes. I have most of it on video
tape; but the really close shots (4' or so) are quite good despite the
blinds. That would be fun to upload video clips.

The best part of this list is having access to experts like Don Baccus.
