Lophophanes cristatus - a photo on Flickriver

            Today I share with you an image of one of my favourite birds, the European Crested Tit. The other day I was lucky enough to be able to photograph these charming little forest dwellers. Although they were slow to appear, they are a bit shy; in the end I was able to enjoy the privilege of watching them and capture some unique moments with the camera.

Among the forest birds I usually see in my environment, this species has always fascinated me. Because of that intense red eye and their peculiar punk-like crest, it gives them a unique personality that never fails to catch my attention.

Although I didn't photograph this species alone that day, they were certainly the most generous with their time in front of the lens. They love to pose, and when they come down to the perch, they stay much longer than other birds, as if they enjoy the limelight.

I hope you like it!
