Hi Nick,

These Coal Tits are so pretty and this is a wonderful shot. The pose is so cute as he looks for food. Beautiful colors, fine details, a nice sparkle in his eye, and a lovely background.

Hmmm, this is delightful, Nick!
I like the POV and pose of this capture of the Coak Tit with all the features showing well, including the white stripe at the back of the head.
Otherwise this has all the high qualities that characterise your images nowadays, especially regarding sharpness, natural bokeh BG and composition.
Thanks for sharing this excellent image,
Ivan

Lovely lighting and the soft background really brings this bird into focus. I love the pose, wonderfufl colors, and the sparkle in a subject's eye always captures my attention. Well done.

Hello Nick
I have the week off and today was supposed to be good and bright..It wasnt!!..I see you had the same luck with the light!!..I had really big hail shower!!
That said this is a fine picture of a coal tit..the sharpness is just superb and the subject is really isolated by the great BG which is a picture in itself.

Hi Nick,

Superb capture of the cute little Coal Tit, its a nicely composed shot and I like the pose with the Tit perching on the broken branch, nice sharp deatil and great colours, I like the sheen on the black cap, you also get a good perspective of its small size too.

I admire the efficacy with which you have used your 70-300mm for this bird shot, Nicholas.
Very clear and unobstructed view of the Coal Tit perched on a shapely branch.
Great focus and natural colours.
Well done and TFS.

These birds are so cute - we used to have several coming to our garden in Dorset! Lovely capture of it in a fine pose showing the white marking on the back of its head. Sharp and colourful and a fine composition.

Despite your problems with the sun, Nick, this is a fine capture of the coal tit! The colours are natural and perfectly visible from your shot!
He does look a little thin! No wonder he came for feeding straight away! He has posed beautifully in return for the food!

kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Nick,

Lovely picture. I haven't managed to get a shot of a coal tit yet, they seem less common here than the great and blue tit. A very attractive little bird and this is a great shot. Technically perfect nd a nice pose from the bird.

Hello Nicholas

A lovely capture of this Coal Tit.
Lovely focus and sharpness.
The colours are excellent.
These little birds look a lot like our chickadees.
I like how you composed this on the diagonal branch.
