I think I can safely say that this is one of the nicest blue tit photos I have seen on dA. I love the dof and the position of the bird. Excellent work
Was this taken in an aviary, or the wild? I only ask because of the band.

Thank you. Its a wild bird, but taken at a wildelife reserve where they do a regular ringing operation so a large proportion of the birds have rings. Slight shame from the photography point of view, but obviously usefull for conservation.

It is still a wonderful photo. I have only seen a few banded wild birds, mostly the larger ones such as the spoonbill, but bands for the most part do not bother me because I know it can provide valuable information.
