Thanks Matt (Shellenberg) for the ID correction. I chased a couple of these around for about an hour trying to get a clean shot. This was the best one.

Thanks for looking, comments & suggestions are always appreciated!

Thanks Matt, I looked quite a while through guides and the closest I could figure out was the yellow rumped. I'll correct the title.

I agree that this is a very nice shot. It has terrific detail and color. I like the pose and slight head turn. The diagonal perch helps the image. Fine background.
