I found this guy up at the Carden Alvar in Southern Ontario. A great place for birders and photographers :)

Great exposure control, setting, and BG. The bird looks a tad oversharpened on my monitor.

Great capture. I tried for these yesterday here in Sackville and could not get close at all. They seemed very "skittery". Great perch and BG in this image. I agree with Axel that the image looks a bit over-sharpened.

Nice pose and nice bg but it looks a bit oversharpened for my taste

This is a great capture - I'm envious of this image (in a good way :o). I recently did some chasing around of these guys and they are so difficult to get within range. The little blossoms accentuate him very well.

Great pose and exposure.....perch and BG are lovely too!
