You're Killing Me Smalls

Mystery Bird.

"She stopped and listened to him and somehow his cheerful, friendly little whistle gave her a pleased feeling--even a disagreeable little girl may be lonely, and the big closed house and big bare moor and big bare gardens had made this one feel as if there was no one left in the world but herself. If she had been an affectionate child, who had been used to being loved, she would have broken her heart, but even though she was "Mistress Mary Quite Contrary" she was desolate, and the bright-breasted little bird brought a look into her sour little face which was almost a smile. She listened to him until he flew away. He was not like an Indian bird and she liked him and wondered if she should ever see him again. Perhaps he lived in the mysterious garden and knew all about it." ~Frances Hodgson Burnett

I'm not usually one for photographing birds but they have been so agreeable lately. This bird I have no clue what is...even after searching the internet and books I've no clue. If anyone has an idea I would be glad to know. :-)
