Artist's Comments
Imaginative title, huh? 
I was out taking pictures for an insurance claim and saw this bird, I took as many pictures of it as I could before some kid on a skateboard whizzed by and scared it off (By the way, at that exact moment my frustration at the kid made me realise just how old I am )
I learned that telephoto zooms are good for bird photos, and even though you have a telephoto zoom, you still have to be close to the bird in order to see anything, I was about 5 feet away at 200mm (EXIF 50mm x 4) and I didn't get a whole lot in the viewfinder. Probably because of the tiny size of the bird.

Funny thing is I got a picture myself that is almost exactly the same as this one. Same bird, and same pose. Weird huh? Anyway, your picture is much better than mine. I couldn't get anywhere near as close as you did, and even with my zoom lens, it did not come out as good as this one.
Great job!!
