sitting on a stick

Thanks Ruby for your kind comment. The branches belong to another tree in the background, but because the focus is fair and square on the bird, the background displays blurry. There is "no ghost"

 I would love to meet a ghost though. When my son was about 3 years old, he always wanted us to go for a walk and leave him home alone. One day we returned to see what he was up to. He had turned all the lights off. We were worried. We found him in the cellar under the house. The little guy was walking around in the dark. When we called out to him, he got very upset, he blamed us for chasing the "ghosts" away. He had been trying to sneak up on them for days.
