Great shot. Cool feeder with peanuts.

This is a little different than the ones we get at the cabin. No Chickadees down here in Lincoln.
As for the snow, the winter snow pack was more than 150% of normal and spring and early summer were unusually cool. It has been melting fast, lately.

So that is what a Chickadee looks like. I also love the Hummimgbirds.

Well done, EG. The narrow depth of field suits it nicely.

EG : ) Hello there ! .. i love these little creatures especially since they nested in an ornamental bird box we have this past Spring .. they are so hard to capture with the camera .. very fast and not one to sit long.
You did GREAT !!

Is this your feeder? Is it anti-squirrel?

Terrific shot, EG!

And I loved your comment about MB and the 100% cowgirl!

What a splendid little bird - used to have ones that looked very much like this in the UK - but we dont have them in Australia. Shame really, as they are a great garden bird.

Great shot!

John @ Beans and I on the Loose said...

Always in search of a squirrel resistant feeder, this one here looks to be of industrial strength. Maybe squirrel proof. Nice shot of one of my favorite birds.

Rose said...

They are such flighty little birds...he must have really loved the peanuts to let you get this photo.

VP said...
