Is this a Carolina Wren? Shot in the suburbs of Northern Virginia.

    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!"

    Thanks Ira and Harry. High praise from a couple of masters!
    Pleasing bokeh is pretty easy to get with a long lens and close subject, but the Nikkor 300mm f/2.8 ED AF is pretty creamy, no? This was shot with a 1.4TC also. These little guys don't sit still very long.

    Very pleasing capture because of both exposure and background!
