This is an especially nice chickadee portrait, Yves. The composition and background tones are beautiful and the details of the bird itself are exceptional. A first rate portrait capture!
Thank you Heather for the nice comments. This was a real gift. The encounter was so fast and so close to me that I just raised the camera an shot blind. I discovered later how sharp and detailed was the bird. Discovers too that the background was a perfect match with soft grey tones and two red lines. Many thanks to Mother Nature.
