We had another day in our slow-coming spring yesterday when the sun was warm enough to stand out on the back deck (still in fleece and coat, gloves and winter hat of course) while the birds were at the feeding station, waiting, practicing patience, with my camera balanced on top of the home-made bean-bag head on my monopod. Chickadees, of course, a few Titmice, and the female Downy woodpecker. The male was around, but I never caught it on the feeding station, and, for the first time in months, we had a male Hairy for a few seconds at the suet, and for 30 minutes or more in the trees around the yard.

Olympus OM-D E-M10 with 75-300mm zoom. 600mm equivalent. Shutter preferred. 1/800th @ ISO 320 @ f6.7. Processed in Snapseed on the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 2014. If you look very closely you might be able to see where I edited out obtrusive out-of-focus branches with the Retouch tools in Handy Photo.
