Maria and I went North to Cairngorm to bring in the New Year. We had a great time staying at the Cairngorm hotel for a couple of days. Before returning home on 2nd January I managed to get a few hours at Rothiemurchus Forest where I captured this little beauty. On arrival I met a few guys, three from England, one from Holland and one from the USA, all waiting for a look at this rare bird. There was a few feeders put on the nearby trees to entice it from the depth of the forest where they can be found. After a couple of hours the bird appeared for a few seconds and I managed a few shots, this being the best I could get. Not an easy bird to photograph and I was happy that his/her crest was raised. The light was poor, hence the high ISO and low SS. Thanks for looking.
