Birdie Birdie

Jan. 16, 2009

Somehow I never ever have my camera when a good photo-op comes about. However, on Friday when I pulled into the parking lot at our apartment, this little birdie was sitting in the tree that is at the bottom of the stairs - staring me right in the face! Of course though, my camera was upstairs, which meant I would have to turn the car off and get out without making too much noise so I wouldn't scare it away! When I made it to the stairs the bird was still sitting there, so I took off through the apartment & grabbed my camera. When I made it back down, the bird was still there on the tree. But, when I turned on the camera the volume was still on high, which scared the bird and caused it to move to the porch railing -- then, when I clicked the first picture it started to fly away...luckily my new camera thinks fast & I was able to snap it again
