bushtits, that is, in a willow tree next to a path... this little fellow hopped out into the open in some real nice light, with a real nice background, long enough to give me several very nice shots from about 15-20 feet away before he moved...

Good ones. Loved the title except that "Tits" should be capitalized instead of just "tits" which might cause a problem. ; )

Wonderful images, lovely lighting.

thank you, everyone! these are probably the best bushtit photos i've ever gotten... everything worked. good light, a nice backdrop, the bird stayed still long enough for good photos, end even posed for me, and i was close enough to get a nice, big image... #2 will be in my 2017 "Feathered Friends" calendar!

And rightfully so -- its a fantastic photograph!

As I said in my earlier comment, Bushtits are amongst my favorite birds. Their behavior is so much fun. I love how they move around so quickly and in little pacts with their friends. They are a really are a fun bird to watch, but are incredibly difficult to photograph.

I'm thankful you shared these wonderful images with us!

thanks, Bryan! they are tough to get good shots of - normally i don't see them out in the open like this one was, nor so close... sometimes it pays to be lucky!
