WAKE UP!!! (male Rose-Breasted Grosbeak)

This little guy is a male Rose-Breasted Grosbeak. I took this photo this morning out my dining room door window, I only cropped off the top just a tad, I was going to try to get a little wider shot so I could include the rest of his tail but this guy was REALLY close to the Window and my camera, I used my 12-60mm lens pressed up to the glass so he was only about 2-4" away from the camera. If I backed up or moved to much I was thinking that he would fly away.... as it turns out he didn't.

 

My mother-n-law got my wife this little bird feeder that hangs by 2 little suctions a few weeks ago, My wife decided to hang it on our french doors that face the back of the house.

 

So this morning I wake up to my alarm clock going off like I do most days, For some reason I thought today was sunday so I kinda just took my time getting out of bed..... So I walked from my bedroom toward my kitchen area I walked by the french doors in our Dining room like I do just about every morning, Only this time, this little bird was sitting there and decided to smack the glass with his beak which made this lound bang noise. Thinking back now it probably wasn't all that loud, but it was when I walked by the door and I was standing in front of the door...... It scared the CRAP out of me. LOL So after that little incident I remembered I had to go Pee and at the sametime I realized I was late for work and it was monday. So I guess thanks for scaring the S#@!* out of me Bird.
