    vermilion flycatcher

    Not a great photo but a very difficult bird to find. This one was taken from the back of a moving truck!

    meadow pipit?

    Thanks for the help. I wasn't thinking juveniles at all! There was a pair, which made me think male, female. I managed to get a dozen good shots through my window, they were very cooperative. They're are first for me, I've seen adults before but not the youngsters. Nice to know they bred...

    meadow pipit?

    Is this a meadow pipit? I thought it was but the beak seems more bunting-like now! It's got the long back claw so it must be a meadow pipit?

    Comment by 'LMG' in media 'Bluetit watching a stoat'

    Tanny: I stand to be corrected but I thought a long mouse was a weasel (and I have seen them about too) and a long rat was a stoat. I agree the tail is odd, I thought perhaps it was a youngster. Can anyone put me right?

    Alarming at a stoat

    Yesterday there were about a dozen garden birds alarming at a stoat. I've posted a photo in the gallery showing a bluetit watching the predator. It was so interesting to watch. Most of the birds were sitting in the tree above the animal. Some were quite daring and got quite close to it. I...

    Swallow baby

    Three weeks ago I discovered one egg in the swallow nest. A week later, still one egg. Yesterday it hatched! It takes two weeks for the baby to emerge, so the egg probably wasn't incubated for the first week. Perhaps the pair were trying to produce more eggs? We've had loads of swallows...

    Bluetit watching a stoat

    Top left is a bluetit watching a stoat! In fact there were about a dozen birds (great tits, wrens, a robin and a chiffchaff) in the tree watching and alarming at the stoat. Some were babies, probably learning to avoid this predator! It was really interesting to watch.

    Comment by 'LMG' in media 'figbird'

    I only know it as a figbird! Have done a Google search and I'm confused between the Viridis and Vieilloti. I think it's the Viridis or Southern Figbird. See what you think, there are several good sites.
