This bird has been making a home among the Christmas lights on my front porch the past several days. When I get within a few feet he will flutter around my head and land on another area of the porch, but never leave it. At first I thought it was a fly catcher, but after taking a photo, I doubt it is. The almost tame nature of the bird has me intrigued. Any help on ID'ing it would be very appreciated. I live in Maryland, USA btw.

Look for the Red topped Male around, They're such a nice red color to see. If you feel sorry for her about being in the cold don't worry about her being cold but instead worry about her getting some Black oil sunflower seeds and some water from a heated birdbath...wink wink..haha
