Beautiful.
Great shot of a species of Nomada, sleeping of course:-)

 
Eric, it's difficult
to screw up with these little prettys, but I sure did it!! What you see is the *only* good shot of her I was able to get out of umpteen exposures. Of course, with the wind whistling around at 20-25 knots constantly, it wasn't all that hard to miss the shot.
