My first magpie pics and some sturks!!! x


I only saw my first magpie yesterday!!They were here again this morning, so it appears that they may become regulars!!! Not sure how i feel about this, as i worry about my smaller birdies, but at the same time, theyre very beautiful birds!!! I hope to get some really good pics of them soon!!! x

I know its a distant shot, but i was delighted to see the great tits again!! x


....and the sturks reappeared this morning, im pleased to say!!! x



..and another distant shot!!! again,, i was pleased to see the tits around this morning x

Todays visitors! (very few)! x


This little fella was watching me clean and fill up my feeders, he was there for a while!


I was able to get fairly close, which is unusual for a dunnock, as they usually scarper when i go out! x



A very cropped pic of the bluetit! But im not having many birdies at the mo, so every pic counts!!!




Think this was a greenfinch, the sun was on him, so has made his colouring a bit strange!!





This flutter was on my shed for ages today x
