Lucky you! You've captured an expression that makes this little rainbow bird look almost human in his eye. #11298832

What a catch! I know how nervous these beautiful birds are at a feeder - the slightest movement and they're gone. Perfect timoing, pose and capture of him, Carolyn! #11298899

Val is right. They are really hard to get. I am shooting through my living room window, but if I'm not already in a good position when he gets to the feeder, he sees me move and is gone. #11299220
