Long-Tail Tit

This fluffy Long-Tailed Tit turned and was staring straight into my camera I got one shot, then turned back to eat at the fat balls.

A lovely capture. I like the tree and the background.

That's a great photo! We have a little flock of these who regularly visit our garden but alas, my iPhone isn't good enough to capture a photograph of them.

[Henri Russell]

What a great catch. He does look like he is giving you the evil eye.

[Anne]

Wow, what a wonderful shot Peter! Great timing too!

[Peter]

@angiedanielle24 Thank you for your great comment Angie, this was taken using a 400 mm lens and it was a little way off, no chance using my mobile phone either:)

[Peter]

@henrir Thanks Henri I thought the same thing when viewed on my monitor back home:)

[Peter]

@365anne Thanks Anne I was focus on his back just waiting for him to move then he just turned around and I pressed the release simple as that:)

[Babs]

He is probably saying 'It's all mine'

[Ron]

Ha, that's a great look Peter! Patience rewarded - the secret to great photography. Fav by me.

[Peter Grave]

Probably wondering if you were going to steal one Peter. Nice capture.

[Peter]

@onewing Thank you Babs, he probably was, such a pretty little thing not counting his tail he is approx 60cm or 2.5 inches long:)

[Peter]

@stray_shooter Thank you Ron for both your comment and fav, even with my 400mm lens I had to crop this shot, also it was so dark shot at iso 1,000 as it was just about to start raining:)

[Peter]

@peterlgrave Ha Ha they were nearly as big as he was, thanks for your comments Peter they are always appreciated:)

[Sue]

He is certainly giving you the eye! Lovely capture
