Caught You!!

I titled this Caught You because I was set up to take photos at bird feeders out at nature preserve and I was hidden and this little guy flew to feeder less than ten feet away. He did not see me at first, took couple shots of his rear and then he turned around and got this shot...one second later he was gone with his sunflowerseed...

I'm glad you were quick enough to capture him in a photograph Gerry! Nice sharp image and I really like the framing.

What? We're shootin birdies rear ends now? Pickins is gittin slim round yer place, is it? Thorry. I couldn't resist! Nice capture of the bird facing us. I know how quick they are./ You gotta shoot fast. He's looking right at us too. Good focus.

They are indeed quick to take flight. I marvel that they do, but it is key to their survival. Getting a shot of one is great accomplishment.

I love the photo, it's sharp and entertaining... but I would try a different background color to wrap it. The teal keeps it from standing out the way it should, imo. Nice job on the capture!

Very good to catch him in that position.. so sharp! I have lots of Tufted Titouses ( or should I say Titmice) that come to my feeder... not easy to capture. so great job.

Gerry, about the "Caught You!!" bird, you may not have been able to find it in your bird book because in the pic. his "tuft" doesn't show... sometimes they kind of flatten it.. I don't know how or why... oh & I misspelled his name .. it is Titmouse... not Titouses.. :o)
