Blue Tit, Parus caeruleus

 

Photographs - first second third fourth

What?

A Blue Tit is feeding on one of the top perches on a 6-perch seed-feeder. It appears OK - it has a seed in its bill. All other perches are empty.

Where?

My garden

When?

January 2003, poor lighting conditions

How?

I had a 35mm camera with 300mm lens fully open at f/4.5 on a tripod, pre-focussed on a bird-seed-feeder about 10 foot away. The camera was fired single-shot (motorised wind-on but not continuous) with a 1-metre cable release.
