 I had some fun with this bird. She had a nest nearby in my backyard and got very feisty if I got to close. She would normally follow me around until I was a safe distance away. Knowing this, I enticed her near the statue of St. Francis that was nearby hoping she might fly on to him and as luck had it she did. Captured a couple shots before she flew off.

I think that if one is not Catholic, one might miss the patron saint part.

LOVE the focus on the adorable bird!
