Day Fifty-Eight

Remember yesterday when I said the Culver's picture was black and white because I forgot to change the color setting? Well, this one was taking during that same time. By the time I'd figured it out, the bird had flown the coop, so to speak.

It's a cedar waxwing, by the way. A lovely buff color.



And this is the actual color of the setting.




And here's a reference picture from the Encyclopedia Brittanica for the waxwing's color.

  1. That first picture almost looks fake, it's crazy. Nice job though, pretty. :)

  2. Thanks, I think! :)

    I know, I couldn't believe it when it landed right in front of my car. I was like, "Stay there, stay there, stay there!" while I scrambled to get my camera out. Birds are hard!
