willow tit

Plenty of these little fella's flitting about & they sometimes stopped & posed long enough to take a quick snap...should shout 'sparrowhawk' more often methinks :) Mike

This is one of my first shots using my new equipment (canon 30d+ sigma 400 5.6 APO HSM macro). I've got lot's to learn about using it but I'm sure enjoying it! Greetings Jeroen

Willow Tit(Parus Montanus) shot in my local woods this summer.

The Willow feels like the "Original Tit", perfectly adapted to the conifer region making up most of Sweden. Even in the very north you can find it during wintertime, even though it gradually becomes replaced by the almost look-alike cousin - the Siberian Tit".

Willow Tit...one of my favourite little birds, though most of the time, they come in & out for food quickly, so can be frustrating trying to get a pic :) On this occasion there seemed a fair few about & quite happy to pose at times... The yellow in the background are some kind of...

I had attempted to chuck some bird food on to an area where the birds had been feeding, but it didn't quite fly far enough, and landed in a ditch. So I was rather pleased when this willow tit hopped close up to get the food anyway.

I had to spend a day wandering around a new reserve in Warwickshire (it's a hard life) waiting for my car to be serviced down the road. The weather wasn't very pleasant, but the birds cheered me up, and this willow tit kindly posed for me, right in front of the hide.

Not sure why it looks like its wearing an additional feather coat...:) as don't recall it being windy or anything. Of the birds that frequent this little patch, the Willow Tit seems most difficult to 'snap' as they never seem to stay still for very long

again another fast mover 3 birds here this day
