I was standing next to a pond in Warren G. Magnuson Park in Seattle when I caught this guy out of the corner of my eye, happily munching away.
He was in a bush in front of the pond, so it's pretty amazing that I saw him at all, since he's only about 3 inches long and was perhaps fifteen feet away.
He hopped quickly from branch to branch and I just snapped away.
Finally he seemed to be sated, judging by his happy expression and the food all over his face.
Of course you know what he is. He announces himself all the time: Chick-a-dee-dee-dee!
