What a beautiful little bird it certainly has a name to match.

Yes - it was so striking and a tiny thing, smaller than a wren. I was surprised to capture it at all but very excited when I got home and saw that one of the shots came out.

It looks a little like our Goldcrest, and that too is smaller than a Wren. Very twitchy tiny little subjects, you did very well
with that shot. I have only one shot in 5 years or so LOL [link]

We have a lot more than I expected but it is a harsh winter I expect we will loose quite a few.

Shes such a pretty little bird. Sucks that she has to be out in the cold.
