The Goldcrest
This is Britain's smallest bird and is never still.
I managed to capture one out of five shots that wasn't blurred and here he is

Well done Beryl, beautiful little bird, they favour conifer trees, you were lucky to capture him on a bare branch. Well done. It's also Ireland' smallest bird as well

Nice catch Chocky, I have only once managed to get a picture and that from a distance, as you say, they never stay still.

Thank you . They are like little ping-pong balls.
Just oposite a conifer in this little wood is a brook and they fly back and forth accross as do the Robins and Wrens.
It's a lovely little place and there is a King fisher too. I will upload him later

I haven't seen a Kingfisher in the flesh for 40 years, will look forward to your picture.

Your age is beginning to surface.
I have found him will put him in a ne thread.
