I just liked this photo. Thought I'd share with the Stew Crew. Until next time. Lavender Up!

Do you know what kind of bird that is PRH? He's very pretty in flight. Thanks for sharing.

I like the photo, how the bird is sort of frozen in mid-air. What's the green loop to the right?

You've certainly got a knack with that camera of yours to get such a good shot of a bird in flight.
