Thanks for your vote Relectionsbyruth...It took about 5 minutes for Wylie to coax the Titmouse down. A few weeks ago he got a cardinal to land on his hand---guess what? No camera!!!

this gets my vote, what an amazing capture, perfect dof and details.
how long did it take for the bird to feel safe to land on Wylie's hand?

Thanks...In addition to wide aperture, a longer focal length will give a shallower depth of field helping to blur background clutter. Good luck with your shooting.

fantastic shot!! i'm a newbie so i don't quite understand why i can't reproduce your results..my understanding is that the lower the aperature (f2.8) the more blurred the background will be...so how is it that i can shoot berries on a bush at f2.8 but the branches around it still be in focus while your bird and hand are totally clear but the background is not at f5.6??
