I was sneaking around the house to get a shot of some Waxwings, when I inadverdently ran across Mr. Longtail coming in for a landing on a utility box. It was one of those point and shoot deals. Out of focus, but shows the red markings under the bird's wings that are only visible when they are flying. Note how he uses that long tail for an air brake. Maybe I'll get a better shot, maybe not. :-)
