Frequent visitors to this blog realize that the arrival of spring is generally accompanied by an increased number of bird photo postings. This evening after work I captured the extremely elusive One-legged Fearless Nutjob perched high in one of our evergreens. This flightless species is quite rare because the male birds frequently fall to their deaths from high nests before having a chance to mate. It will take a skilled eye to spot this black feathered, white faced bird against the dark pine needles. Click on the photo if you need a magnified view.
