They are very hard to shoot in the trees. They just don't sit still. It is missing a toe on its left foot, but looks healthy. So I think it is taking advantage of my suet and I am taking advantage of it. It didn't seem to care about me, when it was 3 ft. away.

They never stop moving and seldom display their crown; well done.

Thank you for looking and commenting. It was moving most of the time, but would settle once in a while.

Beautiful shots for sure, Rex. He looks like he has a bit of an attitude.
