Did anyone read that story Are You My Mother? when you were a kid? It was one of my faves. That was my first thought when I saw this little guy all by himself. My baby girl and I were out walking around the complex and since I hadn't taken a picture yet today I brought my camera with me. We found this baby House Finch (aka a "fledgling" according to the bird nerd hubs) sitting ever so still in the corner of the building. He didn't budge as I sat there and snapped away. It was so cute seeing my little girl squat down to check him out. I just love his old man eyebrows! According to the hubs it's actually leftover downy fluff but it sure looks like old man eyebrows to me. :)

Hee Hee!!! I LOVE this! I also loved the book Are you my Mother? I would read it over and over again. I could not read it to my children!
Oh, this is just so cute! How neat for your daughter.
We in Australia used to have a Prime Minister with eyebrows like that, his name was Bob Hawke! This little guy is much cuter.
such a cute bird, I thought immediately of eyebrows myself. If it's downy it's realyy left in the perfect positions!
this is so lovely, what a great close up
What a fantastic photo! :-)
Oh look at him!! I love that story too.
My absolute FAVORITE book when I was little! I hope this little bird doesn't have to face that trauma of having to search for his mother!
Lovely shot......
What a cutie! Love the eyebrows :-) My kids loved that book. My youngest still wants me to read it to him occasionally.
Cute little guy! I do love his eyebrows!
so cute, agree the eyebrows are precious
Wow, those are some way-out-there eyebrows! I love that book too :)
They do look like old man eyebrows. It's always good to have your camera with you; you never know what you will see.
This is the cutest and those old man eye brows are just wonderful...I loved that story too...as a little girl and as a mom reading it to the boys!
So cute! I read that story a lot growing up, it does look as if it's asking you? Love the "eyebrows". :-D
Fabulous. . .
So cute! Are You My Mother? was my husband's favorite book as a child.
THis is cute. Love the "eyebrows!" :)
So cute.
Great job! How neat that it stayed put. Love the tilt of the head.
Oh I love him!!! Those *do* look like old man eyebrows! Very nice Misty. I can picture your little girl squatted down and looking at this little guy. So cute!
I love this! Very cute pic. I always liked that book.
I love that story! And this picture!
Awesome capture! Love the pose and the 'eyebrows'!
We LOVE that book in our house and you are so right that this little guy looks like he stepped right out of the pages of that book. His eyebrows and head tilt are adorable.
Wonderful capture. It always helps to keep a camera handy. He's too cute.
