Early morning backlit, had to fiddle a bit to even see it was an Anna's and not a Rufous.

Ottawa - I returned to the site below Parliament Hill to see if I could get a picture of this rare visitor on a sunny day. The weather cooperated and this time I was smart. I brought my zoom wide angle-short range telephoto for closeups as well as my longer lens. The bird did not disappoint. I had a ball with it for 45 minutes.

Ingleside - gathering nesting material– grasses and mud. Notice how the long tail is held up to avoid getting it muddy.

Rick's recent photo reminded me that I had another to upload from last month at Godmanchester, Quebec. This call is very distinctive. I've uploaded a recording made that morning using my iphone; the recording is in the forum section at http://www.birdviewing.com/forums/showthread.php?p=6574#post6574

Tough to get good photos of the beautiful male. The colours always seem to fool the camera. They also never get too close and seem to be very aware of people around them.
