Backlit Coal Tit (Periparus ater)

Many thanks for all of your kind comments on yesterdays post.
Spent a considerable amount of time trying to get a decent coal tit image on saturday. They were regular visitors to this perch but were just too quick for me. Got loads of blurred ones and even a few with no bird in the frame. By the time I got this one, the light was the wrong way round!
