I would like to dedicate my first post in 2018 to 
member of the 
whose posts and pictures of birds and bugs have given me so much joy in 2017.
When I looked out of my window today, I was greeted by a beautiful sight,
a bush with lots of Great Tits
(the birds (Parus major), not the female appendages!)
and I managed to get this great shot of them.
But alas, what can I say?
Till I got ready,
camera steady,
them birds had all flown away.
