Since I have little time to get out and shoot the big birds lately, I took the opportunity to snap some shots of the local faire in the yard. The Chestnut Backed Chickadees and the Nuthatches are here in full force. Here is one shot of the CBC for your viewing and critique.

You captured the chickadee just in the right moment with great lighting and pose.
I really like the colors of the bird against the background. Neat image.

Nice AJ! Was that with your NEW 70-200 f/2.8 L? The f/4 gets these little ones pretty good too!

I like the comp, but the background it a little too busy for my taste. Other than that, I dig it.
