So Joe, I'm a little confused: you state "one of the prettiest birds to visit my yard" and the place is "Key West, Florida"?? and you took this with a point and shoot??

Nice close-up

i posted photos i took in key west last year and never chsnged the location.

this was taken in my back yard in upstate NY. yes point and shoot cannon rebel 300d,with a 70-210 cannon lens, from a distance of about four feet,from within a blind. thanks for your comment Dave. sincerly Joe B.
