Western Kingbird

I saw two pretty Western Kingbirds sitting on some posts on a fence line. I wanted to get closer to the birds and everytime I would take a step closer they would hop to the next post. We followed the fenceline for quite awhile until they got tired of the game and flew off.

At least they stayed still long to get a few good pictures.

The joys of rural living. a far cry from freeways and suburban sprawl. I love the bird enjoying all that open space.
