Tufted titmouse on the railing during another of our infamous ice storms. Don’t worry, there’s a feeder full of black oiler sunflower seeds right beside him!!

Excellent!! Have you tried a slightly tighter crop? Maybe just a little off the bottom and little off the left side. Just a thought. Nevertheless a very cool photo. Lvoe the ice on the railing.
Lois Bryan replied
Hi Scott!! Thanks so much for your note and your ideas!! This shot was taken with my 18-135mm, I’m pretty sure. I know it was before I had my 70-300mm lens. Also, it was taken through the French doors of my kitchen and then through storm doors. Believe me, it has already been cropped a LOT. I’m afraid of cropping it further, don’t want to kill the shot with noise. Also, taking more off the bottom would destroy the look of the icicles which I kind of like!! But thanks again for looking and for your thoughts!!! I reeeealy appreciate it!!!!!! I’m always up for a thoughtful conversation on photography!!!!
