    Hi,
    That's a really nice shot:D. He does look almost cute. Our cats one year, who could come in and out at will, thought they were the greatest thing ever. They would bring 3 and 4 inside the house a day..When they're flying around your house they are noisy and anything but cute. I couldn't get them out of the house fast enough and didn't want to stop and take picsrolleyes1.gif
