another bouncy little bird... there were a couple of these playing tag in the brambles at the park the other day, and this one popped out in the open just long enough for me to get a couple of shots... 40D, 100-400L @ 400mm, 1/320 @ f/8

    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

    Excellent shots Squirl! This is another Wren I've been chasing around. They don't pop up very often up here....Don

    thanks! these little wrens are fairly common here, but they tend to stay in the thickets where it's hard to see them. when they do come out in the open, they're seldom still, so i was thrilled to have this one pop up and perch for me on the blackberry vine.
