Long tailed tit

From last spring a long tailed tit caught in my backyard on a cloudy morning- Slightly cropped, noise reduction and selective sharpening.

Thanks for looking, Fabio

Very nice shot Fabio, we have those little guys here as well, but for some reason they are always restless and on the move. So having the bird free from it's BG and sharp like this is very good ! The birds always seem to have some softness around them , I guess that's due to the feathers or something - anyway, this looks great ! Well done, Cheers, Hans

Excellent Fabio. Love the light on the bird and the background. Interesting perch - reminds me a bit of a knee for some silly reason...

Nice upright pose and detail and I like the mossy perch Fabio, I might take a touch off the top here.

Lovely little birds but I find it difficult to get shots of these because they are never still so I can appreciate this image Fabio. Everything is right about this image, an excellent composition, perch and background - well done. Graham
