Birdlife (vol 2)

I spent about 6 hours outside yesterday, walking around some parks and more common “bird areas” in Tallinn, looking for birds to photograph. It got slightly cold at the end (it was about -4 C outside), but it was all worth it. Got some nice shots (I think). But one bird haunts me now (well two to be honest as I’ve been wanting to catch a photograph of an owl for a while now too, but haven’t spotted any). But yesterday I saw a Kingfisher fly by 3 times! But he/she was way too fast for me. But one day..one day..I’ll get a photo of him. And an owl. One day I’ll photograph them both (and no I’m not going to go to a zoo for that). Anyway, here are some shots from yesterday.

Is it just me or does the behind of a Blue Tit look like an angry bird?!

And this guy was also keeping an eye out for the nuts.
