WC#184 - Red, White, Blue and Hope

I was woundering about the WC184 theme and I totally forgot that it is because of Independence Day - July 4th. Sorry I am not american and for me it was a working day as any other here in Germany.

Well I called the image "Red, White, Blue and Hope" because here in Germany green is the color of "Hope" (I guess it is also the case in many other countries) and the image has a lot of it. Anyhow, I think "Hope" is also important, like to be independent, and my hopes are that we can continue enjoying nature...

Really nice portrait. It's hard to catch a bird looking pensive! :smile:
