Black-capped chickadee

For the first time in two months I was able to take my camera with me on a walk and while still awkward to hold, both hands are at least able to hold it! So, I was happy to find this chickadee investigating a pile of fresh veggies and seeds that some kind soul regularly leaves along a trail in west end Ottawa, for birds, deer and other wildlife.

c'est une très belle photo avec de jolies couleurs. L'oiseau a l'air surpris de voir toutes cette nourriture à sa disposition.

what a potential feast for this feisty forager, with the millet likely of particular interest..this species is common out here too, and among the liveliest birds on the coast..
