When I accused this bird of showing off she offered up some nonsense about resting her other leg. When I suggested that if she stood on both legs, each leg would only have to carry half her weight, she said: "but then, both legs would get tired at the same time and I'd have to fly for a rest --and then my wings would be sore." You just can't tell some birds anything.

Truly beautiful shot. The DoF and composition of this one legged little chap is great.

This is why I don't talk to my models...
I like the detail on the wood.

I our bones were hollow too, who knows, we perhaps would it do like the birds...

Great shot

Standing on no legs would be a good trick.

@Anthony Lambert: Your link doesn't work for me today.
Lots of zoom went to this one, beautifully composed, amazing focus

@Amir: I just wish I could get a teleconverter for use with this lens. I'm thinking about doing more wildlife oriented photography, and the alternative is to spend like $4,000 on another lens.
Lovely composition!

@Daroru: Thanks.
This is really beautiful, great DOF, great detail on the bird (i can almost see the softness of its feathers), and great framing
