Saturday fun....
.... or try, try and try again

I have never managed to get a good picture of a Long-tailed Tit!

A little flock of them landed in the tree right in front of the car, so this is through the windscreen, facing sort of southish, into the low sun.

At least it's obvious what it is!;)

A super Saturday Fun capture, Delia. It's not easy to capture these fast moving beauties on camera. No sooner do they land in my garden, they are gone again. Thanks for sharing and many thanks for moving my post. Best Wishes.
 
That is deja vu, Delia, we have all been there. I can understand your frustration. Surely there will be better luck next time around. Nice setting and nice try though.
 
They are very tricky to shoot Delia, so you did well getting this one.
 
It would be difficult to capture any bird in this tangle of twigs against a white sky.At least, as you said, you can be sure it's a long-tailed tit.Next time, you'll get lucky, Delia.
