Hi everyone, 

These energetic little guys were very fun to photograph while in Peru earlier this year. While guiding alongside Glenn Bartley, our workshop group was treated to several sightings as we photographed from a catamaran on an oxbow lake. I was really attracted to the subtle backlighting and bokeh in this frame.  

Best of luck everyone!

Nice looking bird Jess, good sharp image. Like the BG, however I find the brightest OOF patch puls my eye a little too much and would prefer to crop up to half of it out, and balance the comp by cropping from the LHS.
