This (I think) juvenile bearded tit was enjoying a sunny, calm, morning at Titchwell. For those of you who know the site, this bird was kind enough to keep to the left of the sea wall and, therefore, with the sun behind me.
How considerate :-)
RSPB Titchwell … 9 hours looking on Saturday & not a sniff or sound! Called back on Sunday afternoon & within 1/2 hr my partner Lea spotted this male with 2 females & she quietly alerted me to them (I was looking the other side of the path!). They flitted about for a minute before flying off but thankfully I managed to get a few photos. I’d never even seen one before so what a birthday treat, thank you Lea! 😁
Another shot of the beautiful Bearded Reedlings at Farlington earlier this year. A strong contender for Britain's most beautiful bird perhaps?
An unexpected highlight of my trip to Norfolk has been time with the bearded tit (Panarus biarmicus) a really engaging bird. Thanks to the Norfolk Wildlife Trust for providing habitat for these endangered birds.
walking in paradise this morning i was thinking to myself: i'm going to spend more time birding, what a nice way to relax out there when you've some time ;-)
Walking on the trail through the reed there was a group of 20 reedlings foraging right in front of me. The sun came a bit through the clouds and i was able to take a few shot's on this beautiful birds with backlight.

finally a pair of them posing together.
I took this at Minsmere on a windy morning at the end of October Normally it's hard to see this species when it's so windy, as they tend to skulk low in the reeds for shelter. I was lucky on this occasion because a small group was coming to a track to feed on small insects and perhaps ingest small amounts of grit. As the summer supply of insect food dries up, Bearded Tits change their diet to seeds and the grit helps them to digest the seeds.
