I really like the first one of the tailfeather pruning. Great capture on that. Have you tried any saturation hikes on it? A little more yellow and blue might help an already fantastic shot.

Nice shots---like the activity in the first photo---very nice. I also really like the moon shot.
Your English is great----I don't even know how to say hello in Dutch.

Thank you for you comments! and i think i was approximately 4 meters away from both the birds.
The first photo was shot in my backyard and i was already wating for an hour for some birds to come close enough to photograph. And there is a tree standing really close to the window and i was thinking: "well it would be really nice if a bird would come and sit on that tree. But that is never going to happen." And than 5 seconds later the Blue Tit came and he was sitting there in that tree.

Just put some feeders up in your garden, they will soon be regular visitors.
