Have I mentioned the chickadee is my favorite bird? ;^)

Ooooh. Beautiful. Glad you're back in the game. Is this little one on Twitter? I bet it has a fine tweet.

@Mindy | f-stopMarin: Thanks, Mindy. Not quite back yet (only six shots that particular day), but getting closer. Got my stitches out today, and was told I have a "beautiful humerous". Correction, it's supposedly "textbook perfect" - which is the same thing they said about my blood pressure. What I'm wondering is if I'm so textbook perfect, why can't I learn from textbooks? ;^)

They're also very impressed with my recovery. Considering I've not yet started physical therapy, my range of motion is nearly back to normal...just need to mainly get the strength and support back. Can't get in for p.t. until next Friday, and then I'm hoping the strength will come back quick enough so I CAN support my camera in time for classes to start.

No, no...this little one does not tweet. It's a "chick-a-dee dee dee dee dee" with a sweet little whistling mating call in the springtime. Besides, the whole FB and Twitter thing is totally overrated (my opinion, not the deedee's).

Sweet little bird. Love the colors..the background blurr and bokeh.

Nice close-up really shows the bird's markings. With its little face looking straight at us.
