Then these were hoping I couldn't see them (passer domesticus, turdus merula)

When the activity died down on the feeders, I saw two House Sparrows hiding in the beech hedge and managed this shot of them.

It wasn't until I downloaded it and blew it up for a closer look (I wanted to see if they were juvies, but am still undecided) that I saw the young Blackbird hiding there too!

There were Robins, Jackdaws and Starlings about too. Today absolutely nothing!

Wow, I did not see the one in the forefront until you mentioned it in your comment. Very interesting photo D. It shows how many we miss out there when we're birding.
