 During a shoot downtown, I spied this little guy hanging out watching the sunrise. I was taking some (pretty good IMHO) shots of him when he got tired of me and took off. It came out a bit blurry, since he actually startled me, but I had to share it! :)

Fun surprise grab shot! Aren't digital cameras fun? I imagine that you were surprised when the bird turned out clear and exposed well.

I like it because it's unusual & spontaneous. beautiful sunrise and being soft actually adds to the photo in my opinion.
