Good catch.  My first thought was a chickadee - then I saw the webbed feet.  What is it, Joshua?

Ha  ;D


I'm learning that more learning is necessary on my part.  I'm getting that question a lot (what is it?). 

I really don't know it is, but it looks like a little duck  :).

I'm going to do better about knowing what I'm taking photos of.  I have a friend who is really into birds and he has a bunch of books so I'll start there.

Thanks

That's what I saw, a duck. You can see his head curving around to preen his feathers....
Quite a wonderful collection of photos!!

Joshua, I think you'll find that the more you learn, the more there is to learn!   :D

Ah ha I can now see the duck!  She (I think) is very well taken.  Good work!
