Great Tit - Parus major

Great Tit
Canon 800mm f8 for 1/640th @ iso400

A Great tit in the late afternoon sunshine seeks out food in amongst the icy pine needles, some of the pine branches covered in snow. Along with Crested and Coal tit there is a flurry of feeding activity before darkness falls and temperatures plunge below zero.

Deeper in the forest the Red Squirrels make the most of the afternoon sunshine coming out of their drays to feed.
