Finally got one this year (Sitta carolinensis)

Went to work early and set up on a dead tree in the edge of the woods. Shot from my SUV using a beanbag. The distance was more than I wanted so I set the camera to 1.5 crop, it was cloudy and warranted high ISO but I was fairly pleased.

Wow, Donny, this is beyond superb! One would have never guessed you had such unfavorable conditions for this shot. Beautiful and perfectly illustrative of this bird's field marks. Colors and feather texture are exquisite, tfs!
 
Super cute with clear details with that perfect pose this little one does so well. Well done Donny!
