Seen but Not Believed

Walking from Jamaica Plain to Brookline, and what do I see?
 

A bird on the fence instead of a tree.

The above pic was taken after I was surprised and backed up. I was walking along the fence fiddling with something in my pocket when my hand almost bumped the bird. The bird did not jump, did not raise a wing in surprise. The bird didn't even budge. The bird just...stood there looking at me.

"What?"

And this isn't me zooming in from a distance. the bird actually let me get in close to take the picture. Pretty fearless bird. He was still hanging there even after I took the picture and walked away.
