Way cool! Great capture with the bird flying right at you. Those opportunities are rare and you appeared to nail him (her). Are you changing your name to BillSony!

Hi, Bill,
Great shot!
Anatomically the reddish brown “shoulder” is actually the bird’s wrist. When the wings are folded and held close to the body the bird’s wrist comes to rest approximately where we might expect the “shoulder” to be.

Great capture Bill. Looks like he plans to build the nest on your head.
