I waited ages for this shot

It may not be the best pic of a blue tit but they are so fast going in and out of the nest which is very well hidden. The blue tits are in and out with food for their young all day long but it is so difficult getting a shot! I got 2 in succession and I liked this one because it shows the movement of his wing. He has a nice grub in his beak for the little ones. I wonder whether they have a grub each or whether they tear one in pieces to have a little bit each. I would love to see inside the nest and I'm seriously thinking of getting a nest box camera from RSPB. I wonder how many little babies there are and I can't wait to see them when they come out all fluffy and lovely. I did post some pics last year of baby blue tits so I shall have to have a look and see when they were posted.

I didn't realise that I posted them 2 years ago and can be found here
