Guess Who Came For Dinner

After yesterday's panic to get an image for my PAD (see next image), I was determined not to get caught today.
I noticed some visitors to the bird feeders at lunchtime so took a few
pictures of this guy through the kitchen window.
He seemed to know I was there and kept flying away whenever I'd take a few shots.
The Blue Tit is one of Ireland's smallest and most colourful birds.

He looks like he's got his winter jacket on to protect him from the cold.

A cute little ball of fluff. Looks like he emptied the feeder!

He was probably flying off to get into character. Apropos the recent movie release, don't you think that his profile looks... well, a little like an avian Hitchcock here? He stands out well against the soft background.

He's pretty and adorable. Great capture especially through a window. Wonderful detail. V.

Aw he'll be pleased to have found a meal. They are such appealing little chappies.
