Hi George:

That's sweet. I like that a lot better than many of the full-frame, full-figured birds we see posted most of the time. I respond more to environmental portrait such as this, and as well as making an excellent comp, you've done a good job on exposure in very hot light.

Yup, he shows up well, but I don't think it matters when sneaking up on bugs. And it looks like he's just one leaf away from a caterpillar snack. :)
