Penduline Tit in Bedfordshire

On the 29th of December I was down in Bedfordshire at around 08:20 in the morning in the hope of seeing the Penduline Tit that appeared to have roosted on a small reedy pool on Prior CP. On arrival there was very little of note and no sign of the bird, a short while later it burst out from the reeds giving its distinctive somewhat high pitched calls, it flew a short way and landed in the bottom of some reeds where it showed briefly. A short while later it flew towards myself and others and landed on some nearby reeds where it showed really well!

Ripping apart some bulrushes... 

Some more of my shaky-shaky video footage: 

Cracking little bird, and a British tick. Had seen the species in Bulgaria in a small flock and previously had dipped a bird in South Yorkshire.
