This one was in a very playful mode and presented itself briefly between the pickets very neatly

Nice sharp shot of the Chicakadee!

An attractive little bird.
Lovely composition and setting
Imagine they'd melt into the surrounds easily.
Very nicely captured Steve.

That sure is a lovely bird, nice capture Steve.
Happy New Year.

What a lovely, sharp, appealing image, Steve! You nailed this shot, perfectly!

Sogs, Richard, Paul and Mike, thanks very much for all your very kind comments! You're right, Richard, it does blend in easily. This one was a half-mile trek through snow to a feeder placed well away from any crowds. Honestly, if a guide accompanying a birding group hadn't been there to point it out it would have taken me much longer to see it. I overheard the guide describing the bird's feeding routine to his group, and, man, did that help.

And as Paul says, Happy New Year to all!
