Good image! So many elements combined into one great capture.

I have a special place in my heart for Mockingbirds; as a small child, I watched a nest full of Mockingbird babies grow up inches outside a bedroom window. An iron trellis supported a vine, which hid the nest from the rest of the world, but it served as my private Nat-Geo show, by discreetly pulling aside the drapes.

I like the different colors, setting and berrys adding to the shot.

Rex: Thanks. What a great memory.

David: Thanks. It's pretty different from the other mocker shots I have.

I, also, got a few shots of a chickadee in the same area, but they came out to too soft. They're so small, and I was too far away.
