Description
This bird was at the cafeteria at Andromeda Botanical Gardens and I decided to try to photograph it. It obviously doesn't like things being pointed at it and decided to take off, but my camera and I were faster.More pictures from Andromeda Botanical Gardens are to come, but I don't know when...

Lucky indeed! I don't ever look at this photo without thinking that!
Thank you. That was very much luck though. I don't think any one sees a bird like that; the wings move too quickly for the image to register on the mind. The camera doesn't worry about that, though...

You're most welcome! That is indeed a rare view of a bird. It looks like you caught him just before he was going to bring his wings down and take off too.

Looks kind of like a grassquit, but I'm not sure.
