These are from a recent trip to a bog in Northern Minnesota. It was the first time I had ever seen a Boreal Chickadee.

Both nice but the second one is gorgeous. (Deer carcass? Or shouldn't I ask?)

Thanks, jg. It's a rib cage from a deer. There are people that hang a rib cage at a couple locations, along with a bird feeder or two, to attract these birds. Otherwise, you could probably spend a week here, and never get a decent photo.
