Mountain Chickadees are nesting and I had an opportunity to photograph them in the Eastern Sierra a few days ago. Here, a male Mountain Chickadee has landed on a perch near the nest box ready to transfer his mouthful of spiders and bugs to his mate to feed to their hungry nestlings.
I used my Nikon D5 and a borrowed Nikkor 180-400 set at 390mm to capture this photograph.
