Goldcrest (Regulus regulus)

Goldcrest - Not a very good shot as he wouldn't come out of the bush and the light was cery poor.

I kid you not... the wind was so strong here today it blew all the seed out of the feeders that I filled yesterday.

Hummmmph!!! Some people are never satisfied, are they!!!;)

That's a great picture you've taken of this goldie Keith. Though I'm sure it's not so good as the one I took that's on a corrupted card!! That's bound to be a world beater, isn't it!:-O The only time I've ever managed to get a picture too.

Nice work here laddie, thanks.
