Bearded Tit (Panurus Biarmicus) Male on a Path at Far Ings, Lincolnshire

Bearded Tit (Panurus Biarmicus) male, on a path next to a reedbed.
The Bearded Tit or Bearded Reedling spends much of its time moving around and feeding in the reedbeds. It comes down to the paths to eat grit which helps it to digest its diet of seeds and invertebrates.
Photo taken at Far Ings nature reserve, Lincolnshire in early November.

Camera: Nikon D300
Lens: Nikon Af-S Ii 400mm F2.8 If-Ed with 2x teleconverter.
Support: Manfrotto monopod 680B with 393 Bracket.
