Chickadee


Chickadee, originally uploaded by ElementaryTechTeacher.

I finally made it outside today to watch/count/photograph the birds for the Great Backyard Bird Count. I filled the feeders this morning but there wasn't much action out there today. However, I did like the determination of this little guy. He started on one side and worked and pecked all the way around to the other side before he finally found a piece of peanut to take.

    Great shot - the Great backyard bird count sounds like a great project for making people aware of the animals which they share their environment with.

    What a great shot. I can never catch them quick enough to get a good picture. Very beautiful.

    Love this photo. We have chickadees around here, but I have never seen one quite so determined.

    Awesome shot! The cropping. The DOF. The POSE! It's beautiful! How far away from the camera was he and what focal length lens did you use?
