Forest macro view

I always try to post an avian image in each weekly challenges. So here goes. This is a pygmy nuthatch in the mountain forests above San Diego. This is a rather dry environment, very different from the first two posted images in this weekly challenge.This is different crop of an image I posted previously on the avian site.

Really, really love this, David! I love the pose of the Nuthatch. And the large tree makes for a nice background.

Oh, this is wonderful. The gesture of the nuthatch is perfect - looking into that open, warm light.

All said above – cute, unique and lovely!

David, the details in the lichen and the tree trunk make this view of this little Nuthatch special.
