 I tried to get these guys this afternoon, but they were too frenetic. But, around 7pm, they had bedded down! was even able to get out my tripod and take some shots. Taken with my 70-200 on 48mm extension, and lit with an off-camera flash (manual power, hand-held).

PP - open Raw in CS3. layer for curves, clone out a bit of flower on his eye. crop. resize, very slight USM, added border.
