A flock of chickadees were feeding on a neighbor’s fir trees and I ran to get my camera.

Hi Allen, nice catch of this beauty showing off a really interesting behavior. The background looks quite complimentary to the bird and cone the bird is feeding on. Nice frame.

Love the Composition and the Subject “dee!” I Reallyhave nothing to remark apart from awesome photo maybe just a very very slight crop to set the “dee” more towards center frame. Otherwise Excellent. Reminds me I need to break out the R5 and my ol’ 100 to 400 in the backyard more often.

Thanks, Joseph, and welcome to NPN. The R5 is a great camera and the eye focus for birds is incredible.

thanks for the welcome!
Sweet image, and the hanging position is simply awesome. For some reason it shows very well that it’s a tiny bird indeed. No nits, I like it quite a lot as presented! Cheers, Hans

Hi Allen
The overall color balance of this shot really highlights the Chestnut-back Chickadee. Love the head turn and eye contact. You did a really good job on the Chickadee’s dark brown and white feathers.
