Worth its weight in Goldcrest

Who needs birds of paradise!! I was walking down a river in hope of spotting a Kingfisher or Egret when I caught sight of this tiny little bird which must have been about 3 inches long. I later found out that it was a Goldcrest which is apparently a very rare bird. It usually has a stripe of orange along its head but as I caught it upside down its crest was fully extended displaying a beautiful orange fan. I am unbelievably chuffed with this and now Dad isn't speaking to me! Let me know what you think.
