That is gorgeous, Tim, especially with the green background. I just spotted one in my neighborhood coming home a few minutes ago. I ran home to get my camera and went back, just as he took off with nesting material. Managed to get a couple of lucky shots, but they're nowhere as good as yours, and were farther away!!
