Lovely, soft image. The softness works here. I love the atmosphere, too, created by the bokeh effect.

The bokeh is fabulous. Great detail on such a small little bird.

I love how you were able to get so close. What a neat looking bird. I love the depth of field and the composition.

Very cute..lovely detail and lighting. Does look like the focus is more on the feet/branch vs. the face.

Cute though it appears that the chickadee may have been moving a little. The head doesn't seem to be in as sharp of focus as the rest of the body.
