Not the best shot, but I thought it was really cool how close I could get to this guy. I am lifting up the leaf he is on to get a better angle. Usually the guys are very skiddish.

    Usually, if you just wait, they will land somewhere. If they fly away, they seem to often come back to the same 'perch'.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"
