A Bird in the Hand

[Iguanasan]

Went out for a photowalk today to Shubie Park in Dartmouth, NS and the black capped chickadees were very friendly to anyone with bird seed!

Very nice shot, Iggy!

Nice and sharp. Is that the sun causing the catch-light in the eye or a reflection of something else?

[Iguanasan]

Thanks, Jas.

Thanks, Rich. That would be the morning sun.

Perfect bokeh for the colour of this little guy. What a little cutie.
Hope those aren't your hands Iggy ... or you have girlie hands mate!!

Wonderful image - lovely comp! What a sweet shot.
Although this swwet bird shot is already singing, imo, a 15% burn on the left side of the hand and the base of the thumb would make this sing even louder.

Thanks, MA. You are right, these are girlie hands. The girlie was along with us for a photography field trip.

Thanks, Marko. I'll give it a try.

[Iguanasan]

Thanks for the suggestion... I prefer this one.

Nice shot Iggy! I like when these little guys come around.

[Iguanasan]

Thanks, aubintbay. They're awful cute and I really enjoyed feeding them.

Nice sharpness. Cute little guy.

Thanks, asnow.

Very cool! Maybe I need to start toting some seeds around in my pocket!

[Iguanasan]

Thanks, Chris. Always handy to have food for the local critters. :)
