Went to see the owlet yesterday. It was with mom and they were about 10-15 feet above the nest.

When I turned around, look who went out on a limb.

You can't see me!

I was getting ready to leave when the owlet did this. The wind was blowing the limb and my arms were all over the place.

Then it went back to mom.

This morning I noticed a male painted bunting on the ground in my backyard. I watched it for a few minutes, then grabbed my phone and camera. I knew it would be gone when I returned. No surprise, it was gone! I stood outside for a while, the I spotted him in my mango tree. Lighting was bad. It let me take a bunch of shots while I messed with the EV.
