Nice capture. Beautiful colors. Love the effect. Poor little bird. Hope it got warm somewhere. #3945036

Ronald F. Fischer February 13, 2007

Thank you very much Kay! I am pretty sure the bird would find shelter in the barn. Although it was cold, it was sunny so I am guessing the bird was getting some nice warm rays from the sun! #3945048
