Coming in Like a Bullet

This Black-Capped Chickadee is on his way to a feeder. It's just before he extends his wings and puts his feet forward. I always thought the wings would always be out as they're flying and didn't expect this. He looks like he should fall from the air, but of course he doesn't. It's cool catching something your eye cannot see.
