4th August 2014 - Great Tit

After our exploits with the swan we went and sat in the bird hide for a while. I have been trying for a clear shot of a great tit for a while. They are so fast and flighty that it's really hard to get a good shot. I was pleased with this one.

Just filling in some spaces in my extras album - sorry for mass upload.

This is a lovely shot of the great tit and you are right they are difficult to capture especially to get a shot of their eye as the black of the eye always seems to be lost in their black cap. Fav

This is so sharp, Pam. I love that you've included the tree branch as it looks so great to see it in the wild.

I expect you took lots of photos and chose the best one - this is so good - focus and his colour!

[Jennifer]

Well caught!

[Pam Knowler]

@maggiemae I managed to get four shots off as he was on the log but this is the only one with catchlight in his eye. This was the best one.

[Sally Ings]

Nice details. I see he has been ringed.

[Colleen]

Oh this is GREAT!

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Wonderful closeup shot.

[Sue Wilde]

This is fabulously sharp. What's the band? Do you know?

[Issi Bannerman]

Gorgeous! Haven't seen so many birds recently. Just lovely.

[Nita]

I think you got your shot on this one, Pam. Love the detail and the beautiful bird. A fav.

[Marnie]

Well captured Pam, looks like s/he has been banded sometime. We don't have these little birds here, they do look lovely.

[Rachel]

Such a lovely clear shot.
