Today was a good day
At last a half-decent shot of a long-tailed tit - one of my favourite birds, but one I have struggled with. Add this to the hunting displays kindly laid on for us by both barn owl and fox, the beautiful scenery and weather. Well it couldn't have been better. My thanks to Mark green for the opportunity.

Nice capture Eric, the bird really pops against that high key BG, like it lots.

Nicely framed by the branches and separated from the B.G., all in all an excellent little portrait.

I love it! One of my favourite birds, nicely captured. Nice frost too.

Nice capture of this difficult subject. Nice frosty perch & good BG too.

Really nice, the bird really stands out and has great detail.
