Hmmm ... turns his back on a apple! (Prunella modularis)

For some reason I thought today was Wednesday! Where that came from I don't know LOL. That would be why there's no SF picture this week - sorry.

Today I've a Dunnock for you. It always makes my day to see one around and this one appeared on the shed roof in the garden.

Beautiful portrait of this dunnock, Delia.

I've tried once or twice to put apples on my feeder but the birds that visit my yard didn't seem to care much for them.
