A lovely shot.  Really tough to get good DOF and perfect focus on such  
a tiny creature.

I see them once in a great while here in the Seattle area.  Very  
fragile little bird.  One crashed into a window in our house, expired  
instantly.

I picked it up to give it a proper burial and found it to be  
weightless in my hand.  Sad, but a truly beautiful creation.
