Really nice one Sandy. Love the diagonal perch and that creamy background.

Nice capture of a bird that doesn't seem to sit around too long.  I like the perch and how it contrasts with the background.  I was told by an Arizona birder that their WBN might be split into a new species from what we see in the NW.  So, maybe someday, something new to add to your list.

Beautiful image Sandy.  Everything worked for you here!  Great bird, background and perch.  Sweet light too.
