Parus ceruleus (Blue Tit)

My busy family life does not allow me to go out for dedicated nature shooting as much as I want it, so I have to fall back to garden life to practice my beloved photography hobby. Of course these birds do not come by themselves. We offer them a nice variety of high energy food. Plans are made to construct a larger feeding station to attract even more interesting feathered friends.
