Afternoon Lighting

The family guests are sightseeing in DC and there is a lull in the cooking activity, so I went outside with my tripod.  Just as I spotted the fluffy red fox sneaking along the fence line, a friend walked down my driveway.  It took everything I had at that moment not to gesture to her to go away.  So of course I missed my fox capture, and even worse, the lighting was getting darker and darker.  I did manage to get this titmouse.  Fortunately, the bird was in a small ray of sunshine.  Back to cooking now, before the relatives return.
