I lost track of the round count, but no matter.  This one shouldn't be that hard, but hopefully it'll be fun.

As always, Please post only the bird's ID, not where it's located in the photo

Don't assume anything yet.  I've been waiting for more responses before I announce right or wrong.

These used to get a lot of traffic.  I wonder what happened???

In my case, lyceel, it's because I can't find the @@&$$*$$@ bird!!

OK, here's a hint.  Only a small part of the bird is visible, but it's in focus.

Yep, that's why I quit looking at them.  I never did see anything that looked like a bird in the one with the side of barn on the left side of the picture.  Can't see anything here either.  This getting old stuff stinks

Brown-headed Nuthatch ??? Swear I see a squirrel too??

Sorry it was frustrating.  I honestly thought the fact that the bird was in focus behind the out-of-focus foreground bushes would make it fairly obvious.  I've been trying to make these fun--not too easy and not to hard.  I haven't done one of these in a while, so I might have forgotten where the "fun zone" was.

This was a rather amusing shot, actually.  After missing a Belted Kingfisher's dive right in front of me (though getting some nice shots on the return flight), I was determined to capture his next dive.  Well, I did, but there was some interference:
