Wow, I was out of butterflies today, and playing with a camera lens I need to practice with, when I noticed this very little bird. There was a convenient telephone pole to steady the camera against, so I tried to get a decent photo of it. I had no idea what bird it was. This evening, I posted an ID request here, and literally five minutes later Jim told me what bird it was.  Thanks so much Jim!!! Now I'll look for it and try to get better pictures.

I've been working on my local butterflies and plants, but the plants attract bugs and birds, so I'm beginning to pay more attention to all of the nature in my area.
