En ny art för mig så idag var jag väldigt nöjd. Jag vågade mig inte för nära då det var öppen mark. Taget med mitt 500mm objektiv på fri hand. Det var 2 st, troligen ett par.  :)
A new bird for me so I was quite happy today. I did not dare to try to get closer as it was open ground. Shot with 500mm lens, handhold. There were 2 of them. Probably a pair.  :)

Jag har hört den här förut, sa de i fågelklubben, men jag har inte sett den förut. Ett nytt X idag.
I have heard this one before, but never seen it. And now I got shots. It is our smallest woodpecker and rarely seen. So, I was lucky. Why is it that peckers seem to jump instead of fly? This one is clearly jumping.  I saw that same behavior once in Costa Rica too. :)

This event gave me a good laugh. To their disappointment I had no food with me.
Have fun! :)

This little tit is one of my favourites. I rarely see it so I was quite happe when it arrived to the feeder in the forest one day. And it was sunny to so I could get decent shots. I have only seen it three times and every time only one bird. So this was the sighting of the month. :)
