Willow Tit On Bird Table At Fairburn Ings
0 
Living miles away from the countryside makes it necessary to travel to see sights such as the willow tit (Poecile montanus). Thankfully though, an hours drive gives plenty of scope – this specimen was seen at Fairburn Ings in West Yorkshire.
Having grown up seeing nothing but magpies, pigeons and sparrows (where are they now?), it’s always a thrill to see something different. In the few months since I turned my photographic attentions to wildlife, I’m constantly surprised by the number of different species that can be found if one actually takes the time to look.
Camera: Canon EOS 5D Mk II w/ Canon 400mm f5.6L; Exposure: 1/500th sec @ f8; ISO: 640
