Description
Sweet little Chickadee is perched on a small twig beautiful colors of background and foliage and a soft texture. I love his sweet pose because there is a tiny caterpillar hiding and it looks like he is searching very hard for him. I have also added a digital paint effect for even more artistc appeal. Wonderful for any wall in your home or office or perhaps a greeting card. Many more wonderful works can be found in my various galleries, from photographs and photoart to digital creations and abstracts. Thanks for browsing, commenting and most of all for any purchases. Debbie Portwood :D...................................(Carolina Chickadee - John James Audubon named this bird while he was in South Carolina. The curious, intelligent Carolina Chickadee looks very much like a Black-capped Chickadee, with a black cap, black bib, gray wings and back, and whitish underside. Carolina and Black-capped chickadees hybridize in the area where their ranges overlap, but the two species probably diverged more than 250,000 years ago................ Size & Shape - This tiny, approachable bird has a short neck and large head, giving it a distinctive spherical body shape. Its tail is fairly long and narrow. Its bill is a bit thicker than a warbler’s but thinner than a finch’s...................Color Pattern - Carolina Chickadees have a black cap and bib separated by stark white cheeks. The back, wings, and tail are soft gray.........................Behavior - Inquisitive and acrobatic. Except in the breeding season, associates with other Carolina Chickadees and a variety of other small species in feeding flocks that roam within a fairly large area. Despite being a flocking species, they normally space themselves fairly widely while eating..............Habitat - Forested areas or urban and suburban yards or parks with large trees. More great information on this or any other bird can be found at www.allaboutbirds.org

Hi Debbie--This is striking for this viewer. I see your variations and find it quite a task to find one better than another. Nope they all are big winners. Well done and FAV.
