 At the same point of perspective that I took my picture for the "Streets" Challenge I noticed this small bird perching in a bush. I began taking pictures of him from a slight distance with my 70-200 lens. He did not move except to just look around. I kept moving closer and he still did not move. I guess he decided to stand his ground because there were small berries in the bush he was eating. I was able to get within 4 feet of him to get this picture. Wow, 2 totally different pictures taken from the same exact point! I love Photography:)

WOW. I love this. The background is weak, but the look on that bird's face is priceless. And since the subject (in my opinion) is far more important than the background, I will ignore it for now. Excellent!

Excellent photograph. This little bird does not look happy at all.

The expression of the bird's "face" is hilarious. Great capture. 8.

nothing about this except the title conveys the idea of "hate."

Lovely shot. Nice clarity and color. But, if it weren't for the title, I'd not even have guessed it was winter, let alone hate. I really love this shot though!
