A pair of Bullfinch this morning, fairly scarce for me in the garden, so a nice start to my morning.

Don't think I saw a single hummer in our yards over the winter. However, a male Ruby-throated Hummingbird has now settled down in our backyard.

BTW, sorry the photo isn't better but it was getting dark and the window was dirty!

Most of our winter birds have left now. All we have left are Orange-crowned Warblers, Yellow-rumped Warblers and Chipping Sparrows (photo).

Chiffchaff singing here this morning as well, along with a splendid Redpoll and c10 Siskin. All of which then disappeared when the Sparrowhawk went on the attack and failed.

I've had a blackcap enjoying some fatballs in the garden today. First one I've spotted since last summer.

Male Blackcap on the sunflower hearts this afternoon was great to see after a day at work.

Hello all!

My garden's been fairly busy, lots of House Sparrows, the regular Starlings nesting up on the guttering on the house. The usual Blue & Great Tits, a couple of Robins, Collared Doves, Woodpigeons, Blackbirds, the odd Goldfinch and Wren.

Today I had a new garden bird for me - a Redpoll, Lesser I think? It hung around for quite a while too. Nice to get something new, it doesn't happen often these days!
