Bird In Flight

Bird In Flight

Middlebrook, VA

Spring 2006

I captured this photo through a window.  I am sitting on the couch when this titmouse lands on the railing outside. I slowly grab my camera and pull it towards me.  I try so hard not to make any sudden movement as I do not want to scare the bird away.  I lift up my camera, take aim and begin to focus just as my bratty nephew taps on the window and startles the bird.  It takes flight but not before I snapped this shot.

While it is not the best shot, I love the fluttering of its wings.
