How lovely to have such a beautiful visitor returning to you on a regular basis KC.

A super picture you've taken of him too... how long do they usually stay with you?
 
It is a brilliant image, really shows the speed of the wings.
Just send one over here, perhaps I could send you a Long tailed tit!!!!!
