SF - Levitating (Acanthis flammea)

It's almost Saturday, so here's my SF shot for this week. I know Delia started that series to spotlight those classic "failed" shots, like the ones where a bird takes off out of the frame just as you press the shutter button. But sometimes happier accidents can give you a chuckle. I had to laugh when I saw what I'd inadvertently caught in this one :D Do you think maybe this Redpoll has reached an advanced level of transcendental meditation?
