Sometimes just enough on view... (Periparus ater)

.... for a certain ID.

This Coal Tit just refused to turn round for a proper photograph, but did raise his head enough to show a glimpse the white nape patch and enough of a head turn to see his eye too.

I'd been struggling to catch a picture of this one with just a few successes since the start of the year.

Yes, ID is beyond doubt! Patience and persistence have paid off. Glad you finally got a result Delia.
 
Sometime's it's a tough job getting the shot you want from these quick little birds. But very satisfying when you do! Great job here DT! tfs!
 
Glad that you got part of the bird face, wishing you luck getting the bird to face the camera. Great picture Delia
