Well, here is something you just don’t see everyday around my house…

This poor example of a photo was taken through a window with solar screens on it because I knew that as soon as I opened the door this magnificant bird would fly away. So I shot this before opening the door.

And of couse, just as I expected, as soon as I opened the door ever so quietly, away it flew…

I guess it was just teasing me the the chance to photograh it.  I’ll take what I can get I guess.  I had time to grab one more as it flew off into the distance.  Maybe it will return to our neighborhood again someday.  Or maybe I should just stop being lazy and go find it!

So long bird.  We’ll meet again…
