Default Strong backlit conditions

Has anyone got any tips or advice for photographing birds against the sun.

I'm often out in bright, sunny conditions and find that I have a photo opportunity, but shooting into the light. My picture of the Long tailed tit at Mere Sands Wood for example.

I've tried dropping the exposure compensation before, but it doesn't always give great results.

Best wishes,

Alan
