Beautiful background for this capture. The bird stands out very nicely.

I never have seen a living YBSS but last winter found TWO lying dead on their backs, side-by-side on our back deck. It was such a peculiar find, and Audubon was not interested in investigating it. #1504388

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
