Great Titmouse's First Flight

Picture of a juvenile Great Titmouse (Parus Major) only seconds after leaving its nest for the first time. At first it was very hesitant to leave its secure home for the first time, but then gathered all its courage and after a very short "flight" of two meters landed directly in the middle of our lunch table - only centimeters away from my plate. It took another short jump and then rested in the nearby tree, waiting for the encouragements of its mother.
