Red Breasted Nuthatch

Viewed larger allowed me to see the fine details you've captured on this beautiful nuthatch. Good color and nicely blurred bg. A fine capture.

Of your recent submittals I think this is my favorite because this little guy is just so cute.  This is quite a unique background that frames the subject well...  Mike

Thank you, Holger and Mike!

I was lucky today.  These birds don't usually perch very long and I had a narrow view through a bunch of limbs, but there were no obstacles in front of the nuthatch.  The bird is really puffed up because of the cold.

I've been trying to get a shot of one of them for about 2 weeks!

Best regards!
