Well done Pauline, a cracker of a shot. An extremely difficult little beggar to photograph, they never seem to sit still.

One of the best shots I've ever seen of this 'constantly on the move' bird.

Thanks Linda (actually I was sat in the caravan - not warm with alll the doors and windows open - but at least I had a brew in my other hand!) You're right Ron - no wonder little birds don't live long - they must jsut burn themselves out! And very nice of you to say that Lily - but Ian's right next to it in the strip is clearer sharper and better - by a mile!!!

Great shot Pauline. I'm always amazed when people get such detailed shots of this tiny and 'hyperactive' birds!

Thanks Pete and Rob - Ian I think is determined to get a shot of these little beggers and he's managed it - right down to the eye colour which I'll bet non us knew before he took that!!

That's a cracking Goldcrest shot Pauline, as Dai said, one to be proud of. It's very kind of you to praise my photo the way you have, but I don't think there's much between them. Well done.

Outstanding shot Pauline has to be one of the best shots that I have seen. Very well captured.
