Blue tit on bracken
D7000 300mm f4 1/100 at f7.1 ISO 250 tripod, cable release taken at feeding station.

Lots of activity today -4 frost so peanuts popular choice! Hard to believe we had 70mph winds here on Thursday, lost electric for over 24hrs & some places still without power. All C+C warmly welcomed and many thanks for comments on previous post.

No nits from me. One other possibility might be trying a pan crop with a little off the left ?
No big deal

Hi Nick,

The repost is a big improvement re the comp and the bracken perch is a real winner, nicely done alround.

that's a lovely shot Nick, particularly the crop. The light and detail are great.
