\"White-breasted<\/a><\/p>\n

I don’t normally post a bird on Wednesday. I like to have a mammal or reptile for #wildlifewednesday on Google+, but I just can’t resist posting this shot from yesterday at the Back Deck Thicket Feeders. The White-breasted Nuthatch is an infrequent visitor, and though I have made many attempts, yesterday was the first time I caught the bird with the camera. And such a bird! Such a pose! It makes me smile \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

The light of a cloudy day pushed the ISO up to 800, but also allowed me to capture a full range shot, with detail in both whites and blacks.<\/p>\n

Canon SX50HS. Program with iContrast and Auto Shadow Control. -1\/3EV exposure compensation. 1200mm equivalent field of view. \u00a0f6.5 @ 1\/500th @ ISO 800. Processed in Lightroom for intensity, clarity, and sharpness with my “through the glass” preset.<\/p>\n
