Weather here has been less than marginal and the day this was taken was no different... I was lucky to be able to get this little guy...

C&C welcome - Thanks for looking..

I like this one Norman...I would only have wished for more of a head to turn towards the camera.

What a nice setting & pose Norman... The Downy is a favorite and you captured a lovely composition.

Thank you Duane, yes a little more head turn would have been much better.. Out of a quick burst, this one was the best and he never turned quite like I wanted him too..

Thanks Dave, I have been putting seed down on that stump to attract them there.... Usually a squirrel gets it first but the birds know and check it out anyways..
