The most timid of all the small birds that visit. I always feel some elation when I manage to photograph one.

They look so much like our chickadees, who are the friendliest birds at the feeders.

He's taking a bow too.

Paul Brentnall: Probably the most skittish and shy of our small birds Mary.

Funny little bird ... My youngest daughter fell in love with him ...

Paul Brentnall: They are very cute but so fast it is rare for me to get a shot like this one.

Nice capture. Impressive sharpness with a focal length of 340mm!

Paul Brentnall: I find that I get optimum sharpness between 340 and 360. That's from a 400 lens

and i will certainly go along with Bill

all i see in my back garden is the odd pigeon and magpie,

Paul Brentnall: Even the Pigeon looks great when photographed close up Tim and the true colours of a Magpie surprises a lot of people. They aren't quite so black and white as they first appear.

Here they always seem to hide themselves in amongst a gang of Great Tits. He's gorgeous
