Hello Joe,

This little blue tit looks like a puff ball!
They are amazing little acrobatic birds and you have captured him so well with lovely details of the plummage textures and colours!
Very interesting pov and an excellent composition!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Good capture of this cute bird from a nice POV, Joe.
The subject and the stick it is perched on are beautifully isolated from the smooth plain BG.
Great shot once again.
TFS and cheers.

Hi Joe,

I love the way the birds get all fluffed up when it's cold or rainy. An adorable pose showing off his face and plummage nicely. Beautiful colors. Composition and background are wonderful.

The term "Sheriff Fat Man" comes to mind although you may be a touch too young to know what I am prattling on about. Nicely positioned and your usual high standards as per the norm.
Well played.

Hi Joe,

Where did you find this fat Blue Tit? Do they really eat pies in your area, that explains;o)

Very nice composition and pose, good POV and BG, pin sharp details and bright natural colours.

Good work again.

TFS

Best wishes

Hi Joe

Lovely shot of the chubby Blue Tit
Very nice pose with the bird all squatted up.
The feather deatils are nice and sharp but still look as if they would be soft and fluffy to touch.
Well saturated colours too and nice exposure on the white face, all my attempts look like little Clowns as the faces are so OE.

Hello Joe,
Good use of the light of a rainy day here, Joe!
You have achieved good noiseless sharpness and a fine exposure. That you have caught this Blue Tit in a fine puffed up pose and composed it well on the twig makes this image a real goodie.
Thasnks for sharing it.
Have agood weekend, Ivan

Hi Joe,
Wonderful shot of this beautiful Blue Tit all Puffed up. Very impressive sharpness and colours on its plumage and I like your frontal POV to portray it. Great illumination and a fine pose captured here. Excellent DOF, POV and composition. Kudos.

LOL Joe, how does it get airbourne? I have never seen a Blue Tit/Tennis Ball cross. He looks very cute all fluffed up to keep warm. Lovely sharp details considering the bad conditions and perfectly composed. At least it has nice weather now.
