Chilly Chickadees! (images)

As long as we're talking cold, here are a few chickadee images from today. These were taken with the mercury hovering around -7 degrees with a wind chill of closer to -30.

Mike, that bottom Chickadee shot is very nice!! I like the comp, the bokeh and how the bird is between the berries. Not any twigs to distract the eye either, very nice!

I really like that you were able capture the iris on shot #2. As much as these guys hop around and the amount of light we have that was a great shot. All the shots are very nice. I think that I am going to have to soak my sunflower seeds in something to get these guys to slow down enough to get some decent shots

I like the bottom one best as well, Michael. Nice exposure and bokeh on that baby. It's also sharp.

Make it another one for #3. Very nice shots.
