[QUOTE="piperbarb, post: 181635, member: 12214"] 8-5-13: Chickadee Once I realized the on-camera flash worked well, I decided to go get my SB-600 Speedlight. Now I was stalking chickadees. We have a whole bunch of chickadee fledglings hanging around the bird feeder. After a few shots with the flash, this guy started to ignore me for the most part. I got this image as this chickadee was just landing on the bird feeder. What amazed me, even with the flash, is how fast this guy's wings were going!

Why didn't I think of it earlier? Oh, well. :) [/QUOTE]
