A super detailed shot and pose Vicki, many tfs.

P.S. they are called Corn Bunting because when the corn ripens in the fields that is when these birds feed on them, hence their name. Hope this helps Vicki and all the best.

Now this one has a bad feather day on top, well done Vicki. You sure must have some clean windows.
 
It does look like you were both curious with each other..LOL!!! Fantastic capture Vicki!!
 
Superb lighting and detail in this outstanding portrait of this dove.I think it's got a doleful expression , maybe because of its thin neck.
