Almost every spring I have a go at Long-tailed tits collecting feathers. They are very reliable feather collectors. If you provide them, they will take them. On the other hand they do not pose well for long so I was using a high iso and fast shutter speeds.
Long-tailed tit, Aegithalos caudatus, single bird taking a feather, Warwickshire, April 2016. Canon 1dx. 800mm lens. 3200 iso. 1/2500th at f5.6. From a hide.
