Goldcrest Pose_

With the current restrictions its been great exploring my local patch on foot and I have found numerous breeding territories of some of my local birds.This Goldcrest held a territory close to my home and was singing constantly and flitting in and out of the bushes and trees.

The Goldcrest is the UKs smallest bird and can be very hard to photograph as they are constantly on the move.

This male raised its crest and stayed still for several seconds as the female alighted in the tree above him.

Taken in Devon today.
