The first shot of the Cormorant is my fave, don't they have bright coloured eyes?
Love the Long tailed Tit, I want to see one in the flesh, so cute!!!

Another fabulous set DJ!
Really strong composition.
I think number 3 might be my favourite.

Lovely shots Grant
The water in that Golden Eye shot is so good.
I had to chuckle at the Cormorant shot. When I stay up at Loch Sunart there's a cormorant that sit's on an old rusty bell in the loch. It's always there when I'm fishing with it's wings outstretched in the sun. Frustrates the hell out of me as I've not got a lens suitable to photograph it.

Thank you all
I would have liked the cormorant to fill the frame, as a couple of those shots are cropped a bit. I should have used my 1.4 teleconvertor as well.

Gorgeous shots, I adore the Goldeneye - lovely angle! - not a black headed gull though, perhaps a common gull?

Yes, you are right, it is a common gull
I did not pay attention as it is usually black headed gulls that appear in front of my lens
