I took this shot in September of 2008 and was astounded by the cooperation of the birds. To find other monochrome shots please visit Monochrome Maniacs.

It never ceases to amaze me how birds can land on anything and never miss their mark. Great shot.

Once in a while the little beggars can be helpful. Usually, I find them a trial because they never seem to want to be still!

Lovely work! (power lines and all...)

Very 'kewl' of those birds to remain posed at watch while you snapped this one ;--)
Hugs and blessings,
