Nice shot, LLT's are always good in my book, nice shot wit nice light and a silky smooth BG, when didyou take this? I ask as i've been stuck in graupel and snow showers all day.

Nice pose and comp. Background great. Perch perhaps a little dominant, but I'd be delighted if it were mine.

Really nice LTT, Andy. There's a few near me but its getting them to stay still is the problem!!!!

very nicely captured. In terms of difficulty, I've always found LTTs to be right up there with goldcrests
