| As you may have noticed, the black-capped chickadees are major stars in many of my bird blogs. The reason is, they are the most consistently willing to take part in my photo opportunity set-ups! Of course they don't sit perfectly still, waiting for me to take their photo - I have to be patient as well as 'quick' in order to get the shot I am going for. It usually takes me several shots to get just one that I want. I absolutely LOVE those chickadees and the best days are the days that they come and feed out of my hand! Even in the cold winter, they come and take a treat out of my hand! Sometimes I have gloves on, sometimes I have a little tiny cup in my hand, however... a great deal of the time, they land on my bare hand for the delicacy I have for them! It's completely euphoric to me when those tiny little feet grab on to my fingers and hold on so they can grab a treat! They are light as a feather and SO very sweet! It's a magical moment when they trust me enough to land on my hand! A lovely friend gave me the cup in the photo above and it SO epitomizes how I feel about my back yard! It is my sanctuary, my peaceful place AND ... the place where I get to interact with the birds every single day! I have many feeders and MANY birds and for me, that's all I need for a great day! Thanks to ALL OF YOU who read my blog ... I hope you'll keep coming around to see what new fanciful photo and storyline I have thought up since your last visit!! And... a Special Thank You big time, to my lovely friend, for the perfect cup to enjoy my morning coffee in! How cute is THAT? |
My passion is photographing birds (and other creatures) in various scenarios and then writing about what I think is REALLY happening in the photos! . Come on in and read my blog! All stories/dialogues has been created by me and ACTUAL - REAL photographs taken, by Jean Coulton, that's me too., Photos are NOT photoshopped! I hope you will enjoy every one of the quirky photos I got to take over the years! :)
