Juniper Titmouse for Wings on Wed.

                                                   







                                                         Juniper Titmouse -  Prescott, Az.

This pretty little bird has posed a challenge for me to get a passable photo.  They appear to be very skittish on the ground while searching for food and spend just seconds at the feeders before flying off into the trees.
