This little fellow was perched on the deck for a reason..he had flown into my sliding glass door that is behind the hummingbird feeder...knocked himself to the boards and was caught in between the one-inch space, head down, wings caught..I used my little finger to gently push him out, feeling his warm soft body, and he sat there for about 5 minutes recovering with eyes closed...I was afraid he wouldn't make it so I stayed back and took telephoto shots of him and when he finally opened his eyes and I was sure he was okay I took this shot and still had to crop this one about 300%...love those 10.1 pixels :). Good news is he flew off to his nest and came back to feed in about an hour, but what a beauty and so glad I was able to help him.
