A Dickcissel sitting in tall grass along the Mississippi levee.
His eyes, with elf-like air did peer,
Then cheekily, he flew down near;
I watched in awe as he posed with pride,
His tittering chest expanded wide!

Beautiful.
Yes, they are. Thanks, Timothy.
What a beauty and wonderful captures too.
Thanks, Cindy!
Pretty bird. I have never seen one thanks.
Beautiful bird. Great photography.
Did he sing for you? 🙂
Your photos are wonderful.
This was one of the first birds I was able to identify because of his onomatopoeic name–so exciting.
What a pretty bird and I like the setting which really brings out its coloring in his perfect poses on the greenery.
