Not So Wordless Wednesday (Patagonia, AZ)

I'm happy to say no new sightings of the Mountain Lion, but the preserve has been closed which means less sets of eyes looking for it.  Still the preserve manager is searching the trails for signs that the big guy is still around.  So far nothing but a few paw prints and he isn't sure how old they are since the paw prints were not in a well traveled area by any of us.

 On to Not So Wordless Wednesday!

 While sitting outside yesterday, a Says Phoebe landed in a tree near my chair.  I had been watching the bird feeder with my camera to get some photos.  The Says Phoebe took the challenge to be my first feathered model and did some cute poses for me.

 Here's my series of a Says Phoebe said 'Say What?!'....
Does she have a camera?

Oh!  I heard a click!

I'll do my 'Regal Pose'.

Don't forget a profile shot.

Here's my cute look!

Okay, one more close-up and I'm out of here...

Happy Halloween!

    Great pictures! #1 son and his wife come today and I expect lots of birding ... and a new camera. If I could get a fraction as good as you I will be ecstatic. Hope that big kitty is making tracks elsewhere.

    As always great pictures. How close were you sitting to the bird when you take the pictures?

      Thanks Rachel! I was using my 500mm lens and I was sitting less than 6 feet from him.

    Glad there haven't been any problems with the mountain lion!

    Those bird photos are beautiful. I love the mix of the yellow feathers and blue background, my favorite colors :)

    Beautiful pictures! We do not have these birds here - exotic for me!
