Great bird, wonderful habitat. I'm not a fan of side-lighting for birds, but it looks good here. It would be interesting to see the same shot with fill flash, but I'm not sure I wouldn't like the unflashed image here better.

Vesa,

This is such a cool looking bird. I wish the OOF reed wasn't causing the blur across the tail.

Overall a really nice shot. :)

A nice shot in tough lighting. The OOF reed is a little distracting.

These guys are tough to even get a good look at never mind a good shot of !
While the side lighting and oof reed across the tail are unfortunate this is a fantastic effort for a bearded tit.

Other than the somewhat distracting OOF reed I like this quite a bit. What a cute bird!
