Thanks everyone, I thought it was a cute leap. Just started shooting birds and laughed at this little guy hopping from limb to limb. Thanks again.

This is a wonderful image. It is not staged, it is natural, and it is unusual. I gave it a 10. Shame that it didn't rank higher, it certainly deserved it.

After jumping for an eternity, I have to take some points away because although this photo is decent, you didn't go through the same physical hardship many of us had.
