Out of the Shadows. (Sitta europaea)

Several Nuthatch continuously coming down for the seed I had put out in my dark area of the woods. I tried many times to get this photo of one in an area lit by the rays of sunlight. To get the Nuthatch and the sun together has taken many hours of waiting but I think it finally paid off.

You're right that patience paid off in this one. The feather details, lighting and the moss all add up to an outstanding capture.
