Weathering the cold

Took this macro shot of a White-breasted Nuthatch this morning, 7 November 2013, when I went on a three-hour bird walk with friends. We started off by the Bow Valley Ranche, where we managed to find one of the two Great Horned Owls that hang out in that area, and then walked over to the Bow River as far as Burnsmead, and then back to the Ranche. Pretty well all the birds we saw were way off in the distance, so no good for photos, but we did get a close look at this little Nuthatch male. Overcast weather, so a rather grainy image even with no cropping.

Ha, a terrific detailed shot Anne ... I have both the Red & White-breasted visiting my feeder ... lovely little bird that uses my cedar structure to open the seeds ... they have done a number on one corner of the wood ... LOL
