The eastern bluebird snatched this butterfly right out of the air.

What a beautiful shot.

Do you Photoshop your photos? I was curious about the lighting in this one. The bird's right leg looks like it is banded. When I blow it up, it looks like I can see through the joint. Regardless, you certainly are gifted. I always enjoy your photos.

No I don't photoshop. I do crop and edit a little in Windows. It looks like the sun may be on that leg. Not really sure. thanks.

Love your shot. I came here from SE PA 3 years ago. We fed three broods a season on mealworms. I whistled and they came to feed. Miss that.
