Bearded Tit (Panurus biarmicus)

Labels:
I was really keen that this Bearded Tit move a little to the side so I could get in the full majesty of its long tail. Eventually it did and I was also rewarded with the most glorious of reflections of this fabulous little bird as it struggled with a string of stubborn weed.

    That is such a cute bird. The photos are rather good too especially the second one!

    Thanks Toffeeapple. The tit actually pulled at the pondweed for some time before it eventually snapped back into the water. Lovely to watch. – Tim

    I would be very happy to have taken these shots Tim, I have never seen a Bearded Tit as yet.
