an original chickadee perspective. I'm assuming you used flash here 1/360th may have eliminated a slight blur of the beak. Kudos.

I definitely see a "HEY! Watch where you're landing" moment here. Rather funny.

They really do need some sort of bird traffic control! I especially notice it when filling the bird feeders... the hummingbirds are much worse they know we aren't nearly fast enough to do them any harm.
