You had me panicking and flicking through Cirl and Ortlan before reason took over. :lol:


I had a Chiffchaff on my water bath yesterday. Took me by surprise this early...so no camera to hand. I understand some do overwinter now, or...i was told it may be a Siberian one making its journey via UK.

I shouted “добро пожаловать” (welcome) but it b*ggered off. So I am guessing it was a UK bird.

We have a lot of over wintering one up here which surprised me as it's that bit colder up here.

Bird Brain? Wendy gave me this "fun" pres for a serious photographer of birds. According to info they take no notice of you and just get on with eating the food you kindly leave out every day.
I duly set myself up this afternoon at peak feeding time. First the Starlings arrived and sat at the end of the garden in the highest tree making one hell of a noise. I focused camera on my posing stick checked exposure and after 5 mins they flew off never to be seen again today! Later nearly dark and by now 3/4 hour standing still my 78 yrs was letting me know it was hot cup of tea time. Then the Golfinches came and perched in a slightly closer little tree, as per normal.(set 5000 ISO) One flew down saw me, the whole lot took of & went to bed hungry.

Brilliant! Surely you have room for a chair under there?

All that's missing is a pair of gloves...
