Mono Monday: Week 329 .....

... High Key .... outside.

Shortly before lunch I stepped outside  to the back deck to see what kind of high key  photos I could get.  Wouldn't you know that as soon as I went out there the sun would disappear behind the clouds! 

But that didn't stop my from staying out there photographing the squirrels, chippies and birds.  I ended up settling on this photo of one of my favorite summer birds ... the Gray Catbird.  They run a close second only to hummingbirds, of course!  We have only seen the hummingbirds on our security camera footage so I haven't been able to get any photos yet this year ... hopefully soon.  I saw at least three catbirds in the yard this morning ... which means there are probably four or more as they would be paired off!

We had a great day out birding yesterday and I have a lot of photos that I need to process for a potential collage so I will be backblipping that at a later date ... maybe tomorrow.  That said the following COVID-19 stats are a two day total.
