Description

These little birds are so quick-moving that I've been trying for a shot like this for years! A few months ago I posted a collage of images of the chickadee on my bird feeder, but I am much happier with this shot here. ©2008, Windchime Photography. Olympus SP560UZ - Focal Length: 84 mm F/4.5 - 1/200 sec - ISO-125

I tried to get a picture of a Cardinal one day and that darn thing wouldn't be still, kept running off through the leaves was fun to try though .. I am sure it got a big kick out of me following it around. your picture is lovely ,, and I love the framing.
