Goldcrest on the move.

 The tiny goldcrest is the smallest bird in the UK and therefore usually quite difficult to actually see. It feeds on insects and spiders underneath vegetation but this cheeky female has developed a taste for the peanuts in the feeders. She has also been spotted on the fat balls hanging from the branches. They flit about very quickly and we have not had them in the garden before - or have we ? See her enjoying breakfast.
