D7000 500mm f4 ISO 640 1/200s at f8 tripod.
Taken at my garden feeding station. The Coal Tit was hanging upside down whilst waiting for a clear space on the very busy bird table. I took a series of shots and luckily it turned its head to the camera as I did so this is the one I kept.
Lots of Fieldfare and Redwing about and also had 25 Waxwings in the garden but I was down in England at the time! Have seen flocks on three seperate occasions since but too busy working to get some piccys.
All C+C warmly welcomed.
Nick.

Nice pic of this busy bird. Maybe a little more space around, but I'm not totally sure about is.
Great quit BG.

Thanks Tom. This was a crop from landscape as I did not have time to turn the camera to portrait so I have room either side but not below the bird I am afraid.

Bit tight,(easily rectified ) but a difficult fast mover. Good stuff.
