Shot a Chickadee while walking

[scootermcq]

I was walking with a friend in a conservation area and the chickadee's were so tame they were landing on us etc. Scared me when I was taking a picture of one and one perched on my shutter finger.

I am new to this, and welcome any constructive feedback or tips to make this a better shot in the future. For this one, I deliberately did not want any depth of field.

Hi Scott, welcome to DPS.
Thats a nice shot, and it sounds like a great place to practice wildlife shots.
I'd suggest trying to focus on the head rather than the body, as the beak is a little out of focus, but it's really a nice shot regardless.

I appreciate that junglebear.... something to keep in mind on my next outing.

This is a lovely shot of the chicadee...it's been so many years since I've seen one...I love the watch them fly.
