This little guy was feeding near the bird fountain and decided to hide from me in the bushes and then flew up on the tree. After five minutes or so, he peaked to take a look at me, and I took his portrait. This shy fellow is a resident of Miami’s Metro Zoo. He was painted with a Nikon D300s, using a Nikkor 300mm f/4D IF-ED lens, with a Nikkor 1.7 T/C.

Our brothers an sisters are sharp Gus! Thats Good!!!
Great point Dean and NEVER hesitate to ask a question or put your point forward. (We are all Human and always learning)
Interesting fellow Gus - that must be some zoo you guys have there.
Those guys are some kind of tough to capture under the conditions and seldom go after them !!!! Feeding time at ten thirty seems to be the best chance !!
