    Default Black Capped Chickadee (winterscapes)

    I was able to spend some time out in the backyard yesterday working on Pine Siskins, needless to say the Siskins were being difficult so I settled for a BC Chickadee.

    Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays! :)

    I like the setting, pose and eye contact and would sharpen the bird more. I would also clone out the dark part of the BG on the left.

    Happy holidays!

    You could do worse than settle for a Black-Capped Chickadee. Love the perch and pose. You nailed the exposure. Agree with Axel about the dark area on the left.

    Very nice perch. Great light and bg. I wonder if more details could be gained in the chickadee's white cheek?
