Walking the Crosstimbers
Grubs -- It's What's for Dinner
Posted by Earnest (Oklahoma, United States) on 4 June 2009 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.
A titmouse peeks from the nest...
I hope you enjoyed the viewing... Have a great day!
@Candace: Thanks, Candace and for your kind heart as well taking care of those animals... I did the same when some thoughtless person abandoned three dogs near our property some time ago... much to my dismay they all thought I was one great individual so I had to take them to a shelter... They all found homes too so maybe there's a good mark on my board along with all the bad ones in the great beyond.

What a fine place for a nest, this watchful bird looks so sweet... that's a great find, very well captured, Earnest!

@The Dark Dude: This is an old tree that has died and yes it can be pretty freaky looking... it's of intimidating size too otherwise I would have cut it down by now. I'm glad I didn't after spotting at least one home in it.

@Ronnie 2¢: Thanks very much... the next one has a little less blazing sky to it and is the same bird, a neighbor of mine.
