A lovely set of three Tits all very well photographed. Lovely to see the three species.
Rookery.
 
Three good shots Nigel but if Im being honest you are a far superior photographer and have so much more to give ;)
 
I like to get these woodland birds in the winter Annette but will still go for the more wild shots as well, remember will soon be Owl season!!!
Cheers
 
Maybe we are just spoilt Nigel. You do owls and waders so brilliantly ;)
 
Cheers for that comment Annette, these are the first efforts and hopefully will in time attract some more varied species like Nuthatch and Woodies. Cheers
 
Yeah but what strikes me though nigel is that the perches and poses are rather average and not very interesting. Feeding station shots are good but on the whole show little imagination. Like to see more interest in perches and also more thought put into bgs that give them that wilder look. SOmething i know you are more than capable of to make the challenge of feeding stations more inspiring.
 
Its too open place to get the settings I want to have. I have changed the place a bit but Im moving toward darkness. I will go further to forest. Sun reaches that place about two hours in the morning. I have also rocky setting with just one dead tree to peckers. Hope also to photograph at least some Jays there. Maybe tits who knows. Its not a natural setting for the tits. I have done mostly thinking and bad shots after moving there. ;)

Its the third time Im writing this as my connection doesnt work well. This time I will save it first before sending. ;)
 
Well thinking is good Aki. It shows in your work at the end of the day! ;)
