I took this today. First I have seen of this bird in our yard I think. It was cloudy, so the lighting wasn't the best. Taken with Canon 5D Mark III, Canon 300 mm L lens on tripod with gimbal head. Settings f3.5, 1/350, ISO 400. Cropped to 66% of original size. Comments and suggestions welcome.

I thought that was the bluebird's box Shirley. Isn't the cowbird the one that lays it's eggs in the other birds' nest? I wonder if he is scoping out a nest for his girl?
