A rare and lovely glance at these elusive birds!
Yes, they are very beautiful and interesting birds. I wondered why this bird was carrying a leaf to its nest until I helped with a Purple Martin nestling banding project and found that all of the nests were lined with leaves similar to this one.
That is a very good shot!
