Oh go away!
A pretty Silvereye was on the garden feeder when we got back. I really adored these beautiful guys. Though in this image it shows how severe they can look!!- delia todd

Confrontation
Back to last autumn to find this picture. The pose of these two House Sparrow brings to mind the two boxers who will beat the living daylights out of each other tonight! Needless to say I won't be watching! TTTW Saturday Fun- delia todd

Happy Easter
I couldn't find anything remotely funny in my current folders, so present a species that always brings me joy and I hope it does you too. The European Robin is my choice for today. He was in the trees at Craighall just before Christmas. Happy Easter to all my friends.- delia todd

Hogmanay Present
At long, long last... the last day of 2021 and the Nuthatch finally decided to show itself for me (although he doesn't appear to be that pleased with being caught on camera. I knew there was one around but had never been able to see it. Then I heard it was visiting the new feeding station at...- delia todd

Not unknown, but a bit earlier than we would normally expect to see snow. It sure was a cold snap, especially for November.- delia todd

I hardly ever see these beauties, but the inclement November weather brought this one in for a look round the feeders. Needless to say I was delighted to see him. TTTW- delia todd

Autumn dip
I tried to have my usual walk along the river to take the annual view of the autumn leaves. However, due to back and leg issues, I didn't get any further than that so just waited to see if a Dipper would appear. I'd not seen one at this spot for ages. But there he was, in his favourite area. It...- delia todd

Rattler
I'd been hearing Mistle Thrushes around but this was the first time I'd actually found one... up in my neighbour's tree. So a first of the season for me. Plenty of berries for them round about too, so I guess they'll hang on for a bit. TTTW- delia todd

Winter Visitor
I see even less of Lesser Black-backed Gulls than Herring Gulls they're just occasional visitors, particularly through the winten months. This was the first one I managed to photograph on a more distant neighbour's roof. TTTW Ooops... thanks for pointing out my error. It is, indeed a Lesser...- delia todd

Branching out
A wee Robin sitting at the top of a Beech. I guess this should have been part of the hedge at one time, but it's slightly separated from it now. A lot of birds seem to like sitting there.- delia todd

Stripey (SF)
I'm presuming these are wasps, as I'm really not that great at telling the difference between them and hoverflies. Looking out at the neighbour's lean-to shed which I use as a bird table, I spotted things flying around so went and grabbed my camera. I did get some rather blurry images of them...- delia todd

Riparian Autumn 2021
One or two of you may recall that I take a picture of the trees along the riverside in the town here. I thought it would be interesting to compare any changes over the years. There's links to all the images below. Usually it's around the 24 October, but due to weather and other issues, it wasn't...- delia todd

What did you say!
I try to make the most of the Collared Doves when they're around, as they just disappear for months at a time. Loved the look on this one's face - looks like someone being told off for something he's always done LOL- delia todd
