A little visitor




This little bird was hanging out in my backyard when I got home from work tonight. He wasn't injured but I think he's still learning how to fly. At first he'd fly a few feet further away if I got within 10 feet but after about 10 minutes I guess he decided I'm not too big of a threat. At the end I could get my camera within about 6 inches of him (as long as I held it at arm's length from me). The kids were very excited and wanted to try and touch it (don't worry, he was safe from them).
