David's Images of the Day Photoblog
Black-capped Chickadee trying to keep warm above my doorway on a cold winter night. Image taken with a Nikon D300 and 18-200 mm VR lens (ISO 800, 200 mm, f/7, 1/60 sec, flash).
It was really cold out when I found this small bird trying to keep warm above my front door. It kept flying around and getting bits of the spider webs caught on its beak and wings. These images were taken with my “go anywhere” Nikon D300 camera and 18-200 mm lens with the pop-up flash. I did need to remove the lens hood to prevent a shadow in the image.

I found this small bird trying to keep warm in my front doorway. It looked like it was trying to make a nest in an old spider web.
