It was perched very high up the tree this time.
Last year, it was lowly perched when birders spotted it but I missed it.

It was sleeping the whole morning when we spotted it. 
We made use of this time talking about its feathers. One birder pointed out to me that the pattern of the breast feathers look like heart shape. Indeed. Very beautiful pattern.
