Ohhh how beautiful!  this has the WOW effect for me!

What breed of bird is that!  Amazing how the eye is drawn to the bird.

Beautiful lilies!

Thank you for the comments.  :)

Judy-That's a Yellow-headed Blackbird.  They were all over that marsh area, tons of them.  They were even right by the roadside and sometimes didn't even move when we slowly drove by.  Here's a closer image...more birds on my bird blog: http://katesbirdblog.blogspot.com/
