This immature Orange-winged flew onto a Flaming Immortelle tree right outside my room at Cuffie. Racing from the front of the lodge up to my second floor room I was fortunate he hung around as I caught my breath and took this image.

Great find, Chuck, and excellent image. Love the head-on pose and the blossom in its beak.
