A Dark-eyed Junco that I photographed near my bird feeder that I have in my yard here in Arkansas. It is perched on the tip of a Whitetail shed antler.
I have lots of birds that show up in the winter to my bird feeder. My camera and lens are on a tripod and I am sitting near the feeder. I am not hidden.
