Black Capped Chickadee
This close-up image captures a Black-capped Chickadee in perfect detail, perched with a small yellowish worm delicately held in its beak. Photographed at Asylum Lake Preserve in Kalamazoo, Michigan, the shot highlights the bird’s expressive eyes, soft feather texture, and the surprising energy packed into one of Michigan’s most familiar and beloved songbirds.
The moment is both natural and endearing — a tiny victory in the daily rhythm of life in the woods. The warm tones and fine focus give the photo a sense of intimacy and connection, as if the bird paused just long enough to be seen.
