Beautiful! I have never seen one of these here, even though we are very close to a Volcano!
Wrong volcano, I guess.

Sorry for the late reply everyone. I got distracted by a local Christmas Bird count. Thanks for all the nice comments. That photo was taken by my wife, Liz. We are finding photographing birds almost as much fun as watching them. I'll post a few more in the next couple of days.
