I think photos of birds are nearly always enhanced by berries in the setting. Even if the berries aren’t sharp.<\/p>\n

Ten days ago in the Wasatch Mountains I was waiting in vain for a male Black-chinned Hummingbird to make a second appearance in this serviceberry bush when a House Wren showed up instead. Usually ‘his’ tail was hidden by the berries at lower left but when he turned on his perch a couple of times he raised his tail which allowed a better look at all of him.<\/p>\n

He broke into song several times but I was shooting through a narrow tunnel of leaves and berries so I had difficulty getting really sharp shots of him. Oh well, his tail was hidden anyway.<\/p>\n

He didn’t give me much pose variety, except for this one and I can only guess what he was doing to cause it. I think<\/em> he was scratching the left side of his neck with his left foot and he lowered his left wing to do so. The pose lowered his tail so we could see it better and I like his wide-eyed look.<\/p>\n

I probably have better photos of House Wrens than these but I like the berries in the setting and it’s been over a year since I posted any photos of the species so I figured it was past time to feature them again.<\/p>\n
