Super portrait of a tiny fellow, looks HUGE in my screen!!! I like a lot the composition with the little leaves! A beauty of pic, Adam!!! :t: :t: :t:

(PS: I'm not good at these if they are not singing but... could this be a Chiffchaff instead of a Willow Warbler?)
 
Thanks all. As per my other WW pic Marian it's a Willow because it has longer primaries than a Chiff. Also, I heard it sing. ;)
 
Really super shot Jaff. You got a good clear shot and caught it just right. :t: I'm glad you heard it sing coz with those dark legs I'd have said chiffchaff too - lol. ;)
