OFF-SEASON OBS - LOCH GARTEN - September 2019-February 2020

Last in last night - and I was hoping to see if we could differentiate these 3 birds but they wouldn't pose identically and the light changed :(

First in this morning, yet again:

woodie with coal tit pal

I thought "about time I did a Woodie" but then popped in here and saw you'd already done a snap... so I did a little vid of a changeover instead, and there's a fleeting "hide 'n seek" at the end:

Then I came across 2 in quick succession, the second proving that one didn't have to look bedraggled ;)

The squirrels were most frustrating - not keeping still, staying behind the feeder, or not facing our way:

Lovely videos scylla. Especially of the legume-lout. 

Five Blue Tits - that includes the blur in the top left corner:

Last night, as usual these two tits were the latest, but the (or a) Crestie did claim the final spot:

(That's the pre-prepared IrfanView Red Gradient frame, CIRRUS, I didn't both to alter the shades and plonked it on twice.)

It rained all night but eased off in the morning, this was the order of the day - squirrel twice cos it crossed night to day - it looked surprisingly dry:

Well done, Scylla--thanks. I haven't yet seen any down here on the Surrey-Hampshire border.

I hope they're wending their way down to you, GARDENBIRDER :)

The Siskin returned later in the afternoon but wasn't seen during the last couple of daylight hours:

Crestie was there very late but vied with 2 Coal Tits for last place and they won:

The first two this morning, Crestie nowhere to be seen:

In order to continue with the morning I had to stop a download and it didn't get 'finalised' so this is what I got :(

But in between the chaoticies there were some clear patches:

Nice tail:

Nice tufts growing :)))

@ Scylla Love the artistic effects,on the previous post CHOL:):)
