Chestnut-backed Chickadee

[Edward Fisher]

This Chickadee posed long enough for this shot, then flew off with a few others.

ISO 400, 1/100 sec, f 11, -2/3EV, 500mm L lens. Manfrotto tripod.

Beautiful capture Ed with great sharpness. I love the light as well as the nice colors the bird is showing off.

I wish for a bit more head turn,I Iike the pose,details and bg`s color!!!

I like the BG color a lot and the bird´s pose too. As Manos pointed out, the head turn is not the best but the sharpness is fantastic. The image needs a noise reduction round to the green BG and some levels adjustments in the middle tones to bring more life to the face and eye. Something like this...

Thank you all for the nice comments and suggestions.

Nice light and BG. The repost is much better. To bad about the head turn.
