A WONDERFUL SURPRISE!
I know I haven’t been doing articles in a while, but I just have to write this one this morning. I was out photographing Chickadees and Nuthatches around 8 am today, and suddenly two Chickadees flew towards me. I was leaning against my truck cab for stability, and one of them landed on the grill, and the other landed…
ON THE TOP OF MY LENS! Those who know Chickadees, know they don’t stay still. This one stayed for several seconds looking me in the eye, and I looked back, frozen dead still! We were face to face less than 1.5 feet apart! I was trying to figure out if it was just curiosity, or if he had a message for me…
I was so enamored that I didn’t find the answer to that question, but what a way to start the day! I just had to share this!
Wishing all you birders and animal lovers a special day today!



We are well. Simmering in Wyoming, fall in Tennessee than back to Arizona. Enjoy your summer
Wow! What a awesome experience you had with the chickadee! Maybe the chickadee was thinking the same looking at you! 🤗
