Description
I drove to see if this old apple tree was in bloom and it was covered in beautiful blossoms! When I saw how full it was, I could hear a Western Tanager and thought to myself, how perfect it would be if one landed within the blossoms. After sitting for a bit, this male made my vision come to life! I was so excited, I had to keep myself calm and grab my camera slowly and point it in his direction. He hung around for a little bit and soon another, younger male flew in. They hopped around the tree and eventually moved on to another tree. I couldn't believe my luck, I was just so happy.
