Thanks, Mike! :D

No bribe was offered...she was busy with her mate nestbuilding. I think I must have been near the nest. I took this offhand from my SUV at a conservation area where you can drive around in the woods.

Excellent capture, Ric. And those pretty buds on the tree make it a two-fer. :thumb

Nice detail with good catchlight. The little spring growth really adds to the feel of the scene. Nicely done.

I couldn't think of it's name...too many wee ones to remember.

Thanks, Joel.

I love those little leaves myself...they add color without getting in the way.
