Little bird, big world

A little Snow Bunting that actually sat still for a second or two. Taken east of Calgary on 7 December 2012. 23 January 2013, 9:30 a.m. Wow, this must be a first - message from Flickr says: "You caught us at a bad time: We're running red hot at the moment, so uploading is temporarily unavailable until things cool down. Please try again soon! (And, sorry for the lame excuse.)" Around noon, I was finally able to get these shots uploaded, but now have to dash out for my volunteer shift. See you later. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow_Bunting www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Snow_Bunting/id

Unusual to see Snow Buntings actually perched - usually, they are flying fast in a large flock over weedy fields and stubble. Taken east of Calgary on 7 December 2012. www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Snow_Bunting/id en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snow_Bunting
