Hello Ron;
Well they all look pretty ticked off with the weather already...
Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrr...
I think the Chickadee all plumped up looks great; shame about the tail crop...
What lens did you use for these tight shots?
Cheers;
Lee

EXIF data is intact Lee but I used an EF 300mm F4L with a Canon 1.4X telcon on a 20D.

Excellent shots, great detail in all, i really like #2 with the snow swirling round.
They don`t seem to be very impressed with the weather.


Best regards Pete.

A very nice set here with the second shot being my favourite for the falling snow and the mood of the shot, My only nit would be the oof branch in the foreground. Hopefully we are a month or even two behind you for our first snowfall:)

Thanks, yeah I agree but these guys are lousy at taking posing directions :)

.

Hopefully we are a month or even two behind you for our first snowfal:)

Me too, I'm leaving for New England today hoping to get away from the snow and get a second chance at the foliage:) which is all gone up here :(.

Thanks everybody else for the kind comments.

Regards
Ron
