Note: An oil canvas application was added to the original image, to give it the painterly look.
This tiny fellow resides in Butterfly World, located in Coconut Creek, Florida and was painted with a Nikon D200, using a Nikkor 70-300mm f/4 - f/5.6G lens.

Love the way that the bird looks. Would prefer a little less of a canvas look to the BKGR. Did you get any with the gorget lit up?
