  1. A nice comparison in size between the Greenfinch and the Siskin on the right. It should be noted I had cleaned that feeder on Wednesday, those Greenfinch have awful table manners
  2. I had a bit of a mad 15 minutes Steve, I was getting Brambling, Siskin and my resident Blackcap showed up as well. I had been working, only went down to make a cup of tea, ran back upstairs and got the camera. My resident Blackcap
  3. A winter visitor to our shores, the Brambling, which can be a scarce one to see ... for the last 16 days I have been getting at least two in my garden, with as many as five a few days ago. Please excuse the quality but these were all taken through my kitchen window and the feeder is a fair distance away. I wanted to post them just to show what it is possible to get in an urban garden Note how defensive of the feeder the Greenfinch is

    Early 90's Pep's shop in Queen Street Wolves, a box of records on the counter had loads of these in, equal number of issues and demos, about £10 - £15 back then. I seem to remember John Manship getting around £500 for one last year, so somewhere between those two values, anybodies guess these days. I certainly wore some leather of my shoes dancing to this all those years ago ... tiny bubbles indeed.
  5. Blue Tit & Chaffinch out in the snow
  6. "If I keep really still behind this twig they will never see me"
  7. Great track, I played this out a few times in the mid 90's always got a few people enquiring what it was.
  8. Well it was nice to get out in the fresh air for a change, unfortunately the light was pants (sorry for resorting to technical terms), and there were not many birds about. Anyway this Goldcrest was scurrying about in the trees behind the hide
  9. I have been busy, and full of cold Steve, hoping to get out tomorrow. Although this was the view from my patio Christmas and New Year
  10. Are you thinking of the Flaming Emeralds on Fee - Have Some Everybody
  11. It appears to be a bird ringed by the local ringing group, the colour is the identifier, unfortunately the bird did not land to get a clear ID on the number, and in flight they tuck the undercarriage up so the markings are obscured by feathers. Generally the birds are ringed as chicks at the nest, we believe that this bird is 2H a locally ringed bird Just to add love those underwater shots
  12. This young Peregrine was chasing everything and anything on the reservoir yesterday, at one point it even had a go at a Goose
  13. A Little Egret ... would have been a scarce visitor not too many years ago, they have become a more common sight recently
  14. We went there on my birthday Steve, nice place Ludlow ... looks like you were there for the knight, we only went for the day
  15. A juvenile Blackcap, amongst the many species of birds that had a really good breeding season at Belvide this year
  16. It has been a while since I got out with the camera, due to spending the last 6 weeks looking after my lovely wife who had broken her arm. She is out of plaster now, and in a few weeks should be back to 100%. Anyway a couple of Tree Sparrows (bearing gifts) to get back into things
  17. Welsh ? Cracking image Steve ... love it
  18. I would agree Steve, I can see how your images have improved, that Reed Warbler with the out of focus reeds and colours in the background is lovely
  19. Sad to hear this R.I.P Mr Tee
  20. John there are a few rubber turntable mats on Google, even a rubber / cork one on Amazon (supposed to do wonders for the sound quality). Rubber one Rubber / Cork one
  21. A Ringed Plover poses for me
  22. What I would call trousers (before you say it) ... Sunday was better, managed to get a couple of shots of the common black & white Lapwing ... amazing what a bit of sun will do to bring out the hidden iridescent colouring of our wildlife.
  23. They would have been easily confused into thinking it was winter on Saturday, it was freezing cold
  24. A couple of Grey Plover in the gloom on Saturday, you don't see many around these parts
