Classic British Flight Sim

Sat down this morning after doing some gardening with my loved one and decided to try to capture some pictures of a pair of Blue Tits feeding their young. Had put some nesting boxes on the back of my bungalow, it's a real treat to sit outside and watch them coming and going, must be pretty tired at the end of the day searching for all that food so went into town and and bought them some meal worms from the local pet shop.

Have a FujiFilm 4800 and the zoom is pretty poor and was well back for the first shot so had to re-position myself within 10ft of the box and remain very still and quiet, after some ten minutes managed to get the (well I think so) perfect pics, hope you like them.







Regards
Nigel.

Great shots, Nigel. I always did like tits. ;-)

Lovely Nigel, thanks.

Nice

We've got quite a few nesting birds in the garden this year. No Tit's as far as I'm aware but we've got a Wren, Blackbird, Robin and Woodpigeon all making themselves comfy
Last year we had a pair of Linnets nesting!

*Edit* My personal favourite bird of the month is the little old Dunnock. He doesn't half get some grief off Robin

Probably teaching you to suck eggs [pun intended] but if you get yourself a nest cam for next year you can have much morre pleasure.

But he makes up for it with his swinging sex life.

Many thanks for your comments chaps.

That is one problem with the Robin Jonesey, as cute as they are, they are extremely territorial, wo be-tide any bird wanting to move in next door!!

Hi Simon, saw some nest cams at a garden centre and thought of doing that next year, great idea, many thanks,

We have a family of GrossBeak Finches living in our ivy and they flock around the feeder in the evening Mum Dad and three fledglings -- Stace has taken some photos so I may post them -- Oh yes and a beautiful ruby throated hummingbird which is currently visiting one of the cacti that has 14 flowers on it!!!
