C&C very welcome.

Really nice day today to sit in the yard and take a few shots of the birds at my feeder.

    How many photographers does it take to change a light bulb? 50. One to change the bulb, and forty-nine to say, "I could have done that better!"

    Nice image ... I agree with Harry on the positioning

    However you Chickadee is a White-breasted Nuthatch :D

    Ayup! Nuthatch. I don't think I've ever seen an upside-down chickadee. That's kind of a signature pose for a nuthatch though. Little buggers don't hold still very long, do they? mwink.gif

    Edit: Nice bokeh!

    Yes my mistake..in my rush to put the shot up, I mis-identified the bird.

    And you are right they do not sit still for very long!!

    Thanks for all the feedback.. Very much appreciated. I really am just starting out and when I do hit the occasional decent shot I cannot wait to share it.. Will do better next time.
