Great Tit ( Parus Major , swe Talgoxe )
It’s a very common in Sweden and Europe. It’s about 37-52 million breeding pairs throughout Europe. Its stay the winter.

In Great Tits the typical black and white face pattern is embellished by a broad black stripe which runs from the throat down the middle of the bright yellow belly. This characteristic black and yellow pattern is boldest on the males and duller on the females but is still visible even on the juveniles.

Hi Gert,
I was tempted to clone out the branch and did it. I just used the clone tool. But it took more time than I thought. Anyway.. hope you like it.

Regards,
Gerhard
