He is standing on a small platform which serves as a feeder right in front of the 'Retreat'. It's quite a surprise how fearless these little fellows are. Just stand still for a few minutes (in warmer weather preferably), and they will eat right out of your hand.Rustyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15016141887399309190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5710776687328969082.post-15143766865083771012011-01-17T20:45:01.486-05:002011-01-17T20:45:01.486-05:00he's so beautiful, now I have to go find out w...he's so beautiful, now I have to go find out why he's so colorfulCarole Barketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18068078540295273489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5710776687328969082.post-15217002460497918462011-01-17T19:29:07.291-05:002011-01-17T19:29:07.291-05:00Very cute little guy.Very cute little guy.Ingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02924736131382149056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5710776687328969082.post-2758229113929570572011-01-17T17:55:10.781-05:002011-01-17T17:55:10.781-05:00I like this bird shot, Rusty.
