I shot this in.... I hate to say it.... my backyard :oops: . They perch on everything that is in the open there so I just set up when the light was good and shot away. I always find it hard to get "back" shots of these guys as they always seem to face me so I was glad to get this one.

EOS 1V, 600, 1.4x, Velvia pushed one stop. Thanks for looking.

I'd love to have these in my backyard! Very sweet with the blooms to set off the bird.

Jim this is incredibly beautiful. How many species have you photographed in your backyard so far?

Jim,

This is another gorgeous shot. The pose with the head turn is outstanding.
