Confused

Practicing for spring, I guess. Or maybe totally confused by our warm spring-like weather.
Singing his heart out this morning, but I didn't see another BB all day.

It seems to be pretty common for them to practice in the fall.  When I was down at Ridgefield a few weeks ago, they were singing everywhere, though I didn't see any of them with such nice epaulets showing.  A superb job on the exposure and the saturation of the reds.

Excellent exposure and capture and your usual great techs, Sandy. 

Given how much they sing all spring and summer, my theory is they can't stop themselves.

Not something I normally see in fall in Colorado either Sandy. Nice image, great job on the exposure. I might be tempted ot move this a tiny bit left to off center it a bit more. Still nice work!
