Yes they are from the northeastern US to South America. I got this shot on the west side of Costa Rica in the central highlands. #11740115

I received this picture in my e-mail today as "Inspirations of the Week.," and LOVED it! I realize that it is a bit dated and that you have recieved Finalist as well as POTD, and they are very well deserved. The detail, especially the composition, the perfect DOF, the focus, the sharpness are superb. It's as if this bird picked out the perfect branch, positioned his body just right, turned his head perfectly, and posed for you. Great capture, and now one of my favorites! #11754813
