What a delicate little bird and the processing of this photo is elegant.

@Sherri: Thanks. I cropped the framing a bit and slightly narrowed the levels. The rest was done in camera with a large aperture (F/5.6). Find a similar (and I think better) effect here.

Now we see your true dedication towards capturing the perfect shot .... scrambling through blackberries! I admire your power of endurance.

Love this shot with the almost curious look on the bird's face. But really, bushtit? It's such a silly name and always makes me giggle... small mind and all that I suppose! LOL

@amy: Right then...learn this name from your mother...keep a straight face...
