Fidget

Goldcrest (Regulus regulus)

Pleased as I was to be so close to Britains smallest bird, I was also pretty frustrated. The little darling wouldn't stop still for a moment. This was the best of about twenty shots, most of the others were of branches and twigs it was moving so fast.

The shot doesn't show of the fantastic blaze of yellow on it's crown that Ponks said made it look like a Punk Rocker.
