Didn't quite stop time with this shot, so I went with the blur for a more artistic approach. ;)
I've been trying to outwit this little rufous for two years (I'm convinced it's the same one!). He only comes to the feeder for seconds at a time and then he is gone, and I swear he knows what the camera is for. :)
Nice! I think you pulled the "make lemonade" trick here. I wish the eye were a little bit sharper but the BG really kinda makes up for it. I would suggest running a round of noise reduction...it does look a little grainy.
