I watch the birds on and off from lunchtime to about 3.30p, along with a few photo's. The usual birds paid a visit to the feeders and ground feeding, along with two different one's, andthey was a solitary Redwing, and a Song Thrush. I tried to get photo's of them, the S/Thrush wasn't having any of it, and the Redwing made it very difficult staying deep in the bushes and tree's, only popping out very occasionally. The shots below was the best I could do. Hopefully now it has been here, it will come back again.
Other birds I too photo's of today was: Wood Pigeon
Collared Doves & Wood Pigeon
Starling
Blackcap (male)
Long Tailed Tit's
