This Great Tit seems to be going through a moult, it seemed happy enough though and still ate it's fair share of food.

It was taken through my living room window during summertime.

Sony A350
Sigma 50-500 EX
1/160th second
f8
ISO 200
-0.3 stop exposure compensation
500mm
Almost full frame, just a sliver cropped off the bottom

Hello Geoff

That looks like Mark Davies after a 14 hour stint in a Bear Hide :biggrin: :biggrin:

Never seen anything like that before.

Strange, I took one look at the expression and the'hairstyle' and immediately thought Chris Packham!

I am bald, so I guess I would settle for that. Technically all looks good though. :smile: :toast:
