This Carolina Chickadee is certainly upside down. And it is doing it's best to pull the web inside out (it was struggling and took quite a while to get at whatever was inside).

And you get a good sense of how little this bird weighs when you realize that it is hanging with one foot on the dead leaf and the other on the web.

He looks like he was stuck to the web! I've had a chickadee eat from my hand and he was just a little fluff of feathers...no weight to him at all. Great shot!
