These are superb, Geoff! Care to share the camera, lens and shooting information?

Thanks Ian. I shot these with my OM-3 with the bird detection on, lens was the 40-150mm f/2.8 Pro with the MC-20, at 300mm.

Beautiful shots of a beautiful little bird. Is it building a nest?

Thanks for this Joe. It is definitely nest-building time right now, so I think it is likely that the blue tit is gathering material to line its nest, as you say.

Cracking close-up's. Easy to forget what gorgeous little birds these are. TFS.

These are great shots Geoff, you captured really nice colours!

Good to see the OM-3 is just as good as the OM-1 for this, it was a great addition to the range.

Great pictures. I wonder if it's clearing out old next material planning for some new?
