Description
I particularly like this image because this little fella is using his tail feathers as a brace to push off against the crab apples. I see woodpeckers using their tail feathers as a brace when on a feeder or the side of a tree but this is the first time I've seen a chickadee do this. This image was taken in my backyard.

What a wonderful season of life, to have the opportunity to pursue your love for photography. Your images are an amazing capture of a special moment in time - each one different and beautiful. This one of a bird putting on the "skids" is exceptional. Love your work, Gerry, and I'm really looking forward to exploring your galleries.
