I do love blue tits and the bird is fine but I find the background very distracting on this one Simon and the composition doesn t really work for me

Considering the bright background you have exposed this well, I too dont like the background-very messy

Lovely bird Simon but can't say the same about the background :eek:

I think this is a great natural history shot. The background is cluttered but so what. Birds live and feed in trees and bushes, that is where you would expect to find them. The bird is well exposed and sharp and is centre stage. Well done Simon. :toast:

Simon, nicely groomed bird, good pose and eye contact although a little dark on my monitor. Others have already commented on the BG. :smile:
