Chickadee Chickadee A chickadee gets ready to dive down to the feeder in single-digit temperatures. The spruce in front of the house is dense and I leave it that way for the many birds who live and shelter there. The chickadees are quick and stay harbored in the branches so they are very difficult to get a clear photo. I have mostly blurry or blank ones while waiting for them to step onto a clear branch to fly, but I did get this one, and for the abstractions in the background and the clarity of the little chickadee, I really like it. . . . . . . .

Now, 18 months later, I guess it’s safe to come back, though they are still somewhat unprotected, not like the spruce for the chickadee. […] Loading...
