Hi,

Managed to get a shot of this guy the other day. Nice thing about
him is that he was curious. When I stayed put, he just came over
to see what was up.

Nice detail in the wings and head. The twigs are a little distracting on the right side though.

Gee, I wonder how it got its name...

Great shot, Jeremy.

Nice shot. Great details in the subject and a nice color to the backgound.

Nice!
I guess ideally you would have only 1 twig in the shot but the others don't interfere with the subject - maybe a slight distraction.

COOL!! I think if the background were a little darker, the skimmer would stand out a little more.
