Oh MY! What a pretty little birdy! I am assuming it is about the size of a chickadee??? Wish we had colorful little birds like this around here. We have big beautiful blue jays and very large woodpeckers. Giant magpies...Crows the sizes of 15 Ll CATS (Not ravens but crows!) The poor little house sparrows and chickadees HIDE when the big ones arrive!

Very beautiful image, Nancy J!
