As soon as I sat down, this little guy hopped out of the water and started walking towards me checking to see if I had any food for him. Once he realized I had nothing to offer, he politely walked away and jumped back into the lake.
I thought it was so cute the way he was strutting his stuff; I just couldn't resist taking his picture. Next time, I'm bringing some bread with me. ;)
Nice capture...good title!

Why yes, he is strutting. The way you framed this really emphasizes that. beautiful color and light.

@Gary: Yeah, he was quite the little flirt when he thought I might have a little something for him. Oh well, at least it made for a cute picture. :)
Great shot, Melissa. The colors are gem-like ... superb!
