Blue Tit on blackthorn

My feeding station has given me lots of opportunities over the last few weeks. With the cold weather, I've been spending as many hours as I can in the hide. Capturing small birds on good perches isn't always too difficult, but creating something different - that's another story.. This is one of my favourites from the feeding station: a wonderful pose (note his bad foot), great composition on the blackthorn twig - and some really interesting light that shows the colours beautifully.

Soon the blackthorn will be blossoming which will bring new colour for me to use. Can't wait.!
