wonderful pic Pam!I like it!:)

Lilypon on January 3, 2008

My friendly little buddy and I thank you for the lovely compliments Urbi, Epi, Billy, and Ancsa! :D

Lilypon on January 3, 2008

Urbi every time you fill your feeder whistle as you are doing it. They'll associate the whistling with food. A couple of weeks later, don't fill the feeder right away, hold the food in your stretched out hand and keep whistling (don't move). You might have to stand there like a statue for 20 minutes before they will land.

Great job Pam. Isn't it a tit?

Lilypon on January 3, 2008

Thank you Oronbb :) it's a Blacked Capped Chickadee (I wish we were in the range of the Tits please scroll down a bit, but they are mainly in the south and eastern States as far as I can tell (the range of the eastern one may include Ontario or Quebec....with warming temperatures many animals that used to be considered deep South (U.S.) are now being sighted in our Eastern Canadian provinces: ie the Opossum has been sighted in Toronto, Ontario.

Beautiful shot of a delicate little bird, Pam! A very curious expression on his little face. :) Wonderful feather detail as well.

Thank you and I agree he's a beaut Palmina! :)

Ryan thank you and I must admit it's the look on his face and the detail that makes this one my favourite! BTW I'm so glad to see you posting again! I was starting to wonder if something had happened to you (or if you had joined another forum).

Nawitka on January 7, 2008

Great photo Pam! So you are holding the bird in one hand and the camera in the other? Impressive!

Lilypon on January 7, 2008

Thank you for such lovely compliments Rom@nce, Mald (welcome to Saskatchewan :), and Nawitka!

Nawitka for that landing I had others that were blurred (luckily the little guys stick around long enough to take at least 3 or 4 pics). I'm very thankful for the straighten option too!

Let me tell you about the one that got away! One little fellow landed on my hand and my camera was still set up for a close-up of the woodpecker with the bread. So with my remaining hand I'm trying to re-adjust my camera (didn't work ;) so then I took my hand away from the bird and he started hovering in front of my face ........ at that moment I was so excited I forgot how my camera worked and so I missed the shot I'd give my eyeteeth for! ;'(
