This wren was moving between two dense banks on a trail to the river at the reserve. I was able to snap off three shots before this bird disappeared into the jungle-this was one of the cleanest.

Terrific

Great composition, color, and nice focus on the face... with a really nice, simple BG!

Wonderful shot. Obsessive as I am, I might have cloned out the OOF leaves above his head.
