A hastily snapped shot of a black-capped chickadee. The wee fellow flew into the general vicinity of where I was snapping photos of a groundhog. It stuck around for all of four frames and then flew off to pursue a meal or a mate.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.

Had one of these guys on my terrace earlier this spring at my feeding station - cute little thing and they are little compared to the sparrows - nice quick capture Wendell.

Cute shot of the chickadee Wendell - don't think he would have trouble finding a mate as he is a fine looking bird - great capture - like the comp and the blue sky - also like to see some posts of the groundhog - we have many in my area, but all too often, I see them on the side of our roads

Seems this wee fellow took notice of a guy with a camera...and just wanted to 'pop in the shot'!

Now at last I found its name - in dictionary [why wonder - nobody is perfect LOL]...
If you think, agent, that I will make myself again an easy prey for you by saying about cold or warm sensations, you are wrong :)
The birdie is very well known to me - by name - and I feel cold all the time - age tells LOL
Nice image filled fully with sunlight - cold like hell, if you ask me!
