    Default Goldcrest Regulus regulus

    This little bird really had me baffled it was so tiny. Smaller than a wren even.
    I didn't know what it was apart from that it was a baby I knew I would have to keep my eye on it or I would lose it. I took quite a few photos and then just before it flew away the little bird bowed to me. I saw the little bird's head
    It is a baby Goldcrest. In the forth photo you can see his usual grumpy looking face
