After a busy day struggling through the crowds to see the Leslie Hunter exhibition at the City Art Centre, I had a peaceful few moments in the garden and liked this shot of the little blue tit. I always think they look mildly comical with their bandit eyes! I was hoping for a shot of Foxy who was lurking in the undergrowth but he wouldn't come out, so I stopped chasing him up and down the hedge and focused on the birdies instead.

For the interested, George Leslie Hunter (7 August 1877 - 6 December 1931), commonly just called Leslie Hunter, was a self-taught Scottish painter and one of the artists of the Scottish Colourists school of painting. More information here.

I'm a little behind with some of my commenting so please forgive me! It's been a busy old week and I'm also trying to nurse hubby back to full health, He has man flu a bad chest infection. I'll try to catch up this week with journals!
