"There's the guy with the camera again. I'm fed up with his pictures, pictures and more pictures. Well not today old man, I'm not movin' a feather so you'll never see me in this tree, you'll think I'm just another leaf."

Hence the title for this image.

I think you fooled him all right!! There is an air of superiority about this fellow. Great shot...crisp and well seen.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

I agree with Sandi. You are the top notch guy for bird shots. Another great capture. Great background and detail. Good work, John.

Aww, I'm glad you're not trying to say this little cutie isn't the sharpest tool in the shed...I think he knew EXACTLY what he was doing...he has an air about him and put his best side forward...great shot, John.

I can see that you couldn't crop it much more John, but this looks more than good enough. He is in sharp focus and doesn't look too pleased to see the man with the funny thing in his "claws". Wonderful capture!

His look certainly does have an air of arrogance doesn't it? LOL. Beautiful capture John.

To me his expression appears questioning. He's a little beauty and appears ready to dance on that branch :)
Nice composition and clearness of the foreground. The blurred background is a pretty mixture of mellow colors that help show this lil guy off. Super job as usual, John :^)

LOL ... there we go, got me morning laugh and now ... smile on. :oD

Too funny John, lol.

Darn good shot too. Great clarity and boheh happening in the background. Took a closer look, as in ... a 'full' full-sized view ... details are still sharp.

Nice work behind the lens. And but of course, thank you for sharing this one with us. :o)
