Garden invasion

Finally got round to processing these. We have had an occasional visitor in the past, but never before a whole flock of long-tailed tits (12+). A case of quick, grab the camera, then hide behind the shrubbery before they take off again! Not all focussed quite as I would have liked, but actually quite pleased to get any decent shots at all!
K70 + DA 55-300 PLM. (ps. they stayed for about 15 minutes!)

Nice set and some lovely bokeh too.

Wow!!! 3 or 4 staying for 3 or 4 minutes is the norm round here.

A winter gathering?

Well done on 'grabbing' so many nice shots, especially at the speed they flit around. They always seem to travel mob handed don't they.

Both the *istDS and the K5 are incurably addicted to old glass

What a delightful visit John - and some very nice captures

Reminds me of that Disney film with the seagulls all saying 'Mine'. Suppose you'd have to see that to appreciate the joke!

We stopped putting bird food out as we had an unwelcome visitor in the garden. Wonder if there is a way to have fat balls that don't drop litter down so we can see some birdies ourselves here?
