Great shot! It's cold here too and the chickadees love the suet I put out.

Another wonderful image Janet. That's one more small bird than I've seen all winter.
Only crows so far.

Wonderful shot - you can't imagine that just puffing up a few feathers would be enough to keep him warm..

So cute, I want to cuddle him... Unbelievelable in such a cold weather, I would stay in!

You captured so much detail it's amazing. Hopefully the fluffing of the feathers is working for him.
Guest 13-Feb-2008 01:07
incredibly cute...just want to pop him in front of a nice toasty hearth ;o)

It amazes me that these tiny critters survive in such harsh conditions. Great shot.

Our bird friends share their images so well with you. They sense a respectful spirit.
