Remarkable bird,... beautiful plumage!

Gawd knows how many tit flocks I have sorted through this autumn, haven't found so much as a Firecrest, let alone a Yellow-browed, Pallas' or Dusky Warbler.  An entire autumn birding in Gwent, predictably, almost reassuringly,... shite.  

I took the liberty of examining this first-winter Blue Tit, and I discovered the only reason that it had been sitting on its perch in the first place, was that it had been nailed there.
