Hooded Oriole

I was on bird patrol yesterday hoping to get a better shot of the Tanager. I was standing in the driveway looking around the tree tops when I saw this large reddish "something" at the top of a two story Bottle Brush tree right next to our side patio. I got this great shot! The bird didn't move and so the picture is crisp and clear. Wow, what a gift. I love the 12x telephoto on my Panasonic Lumix camera! This bird also likes our rear neighbor's vine covered chain link fence, but it's difficult to get a good shot of the bird when he's there. As I've mentioned before, I'm tweaked by little things...
