Bearded tit
The male is the pretty one for a change. Very busy bird how's hardly sitting still. I just love these birds. I even love the sound they make.

iso 200 1/200 sec. F7.1 full frame Nikon D300 and 200-400/4

Very nice image Ed, really like the perch and the lovely soft colours, detail in the bird is excellent and that BG is something else, top shot.

I have taken many shots of these wonderful birds Edwin but none of them have been any good. The lighting, colour and detail a quite wonderful but you have previuosly shown us some that are compositionaly much better.

Very nice indeed and you couldn't wish for a more complimentary backdrop.
