I call him Marmite by the way- don't know why !
Bit noisy and not too sharp but it all happened very quickly and I was on something else. The only "crest up" one in a few hundred shots
Usual window set up but 50th second. Terrible light.

Why do you call him marmite? Because he's your mate - 2 J s together
Sorry, I couldn't resist that. Probably the best possible given the lighting conditions, but certainly a picture that tells of winter survival.

Like this one the best John, Marmite looks very fetching in this shot.

Some interesting shots of this guy. Somehow we always expect nature to be perfect, but it rarely is so it is good to see that you are not put off of photographing him because of his imperfections. A lovely series John. I hope he brightens your garden for a good while yet.

He looks a bit dejected despite his crest being up. A fine image given the conditions.
