He would've said hello, but it would've been rude to speak with his mouth full.

But he did say hello. Didn't you see him wave and nod his head? Cute little critter.

@Marcie: Not always, Marcie. Most chippies will either freeze, or are just as interested in you as you are them. Sometimes they even stop and "yell" at you a bit - like the squirrels do.

@Sarala: I adore chippies. We used to hand feed them, along with the chickadees, nuthatches and other backyard critters and creatures.

@B. Thomas: Thanks, Barbara. I told ya I'd post a S.T. shot one of these days. ;^)

So sweet. You had to be fast to capture that one?

@Jane: No. This particular chippie was fairly cooperative. He paused long enough for me to take one shot.
