 The tower of Our Lady of Sorrows Church. I have a cool little app for my iPhone -- Focalware. It's supposed to help you figure out when the sun will hit at certain times of the day. (Sort of like Indiana Jones in the underground temple.) I suppose it does, but you need a certain amount of knowledge, which I don't possess, to truly understand what it's doing.

So, I wanted to catch the first light hitting this church tower. There I was, and the bird was there, too. He's very small, but rather cool IMNSHO.
