Spent a hour watching and photographing garden birds at and around the feeder. A good garden bird was discovering a moorhen on the garden fence and pecking around under the seed feeders. Looked very out of place. A good garden list with song thrush (photographed) blue tit (photo) blackbird(photo) starling (photo) great tit, jackdaw, goldfinch, chaffinch, house sparrow, collared dove, robin (photo) wood pigeon, dunnock, greenfinch and coal tit (photo)After this, a walk to The Bull and back at Much Hadham gave views of kestrel, sparrow hawk and common buzzard as well as magpie, green woodpecker and a marsh tit was heard near the River Ash.
Also, very many thanks to Sandra and John for inviting me around to view their garden visiting woodpecker. Although I only managed a brief glimpse I did manage to get a shot of long tailed tits at their feeder (see above). In all, 6 were present and good to see such numbers during this very cold snap.
You have posted wonderful shots of bird, snow and garden. i admire those lenses you are having. They are so vivid and charming.
ReplyDeleteThanks Flowers. I have a Nikon D40 with a 70 - 300mm auto focus lens as well as the standard 18 - 50mm lens.
