A photographer, I’m not!! But I scrutinize the scene (for every picture) and “pose” the subject. I loved the appearance of the back-lit Butterfly bush. After I took the first picture, I saw leaves on the ground, in the background. So I picked up the leaves–in 95 degrees, “feels like 104” degrees heat. (Official temp per Houston NBC-TV meteorologist.)

I love the Internet!! I wanted a link for Butterfly Bush and found an article that challenges the gardener to **NOT** plant the “invasive” plant. I didn’t know!!

Postscript, Sunday, June 14, 2015 (Flag Day), 7:30 AM: (Repeat) A photographer, I’m not!! However, the Canon camera is always nearby. I’ve never seen more than one Blue Jay at a time. That picture is truly a “point and shoot”—inside my trailer, two feet from the window. (Afterthought: Perhaps it was a mistake to put Shepherd’s Hooks, with wind chimes, between that feeder and my view?! My “eyes” [and ears] approve but a detractor in pictures.)
