This is by far my cleanest shot of a chickadee. All my other shots of chickadees, other than the one in the snow, had distracting branches behind them. This shot had just one, which I was able to easily clone out.

very nice shot,i understand these birds are hard to shoot,because they rarely sit still, but you really have a crisp clear image,i like the framing as well.

Very nice pic Mike. I know how hard it is o get a nice clean shot of these little guys.

Nice capture there. Sometimes very common subjects can be some of the most challenging (photographically) to do well.

That a great image!
