Firecrest. Thought/assumed it was a chiffchaff that had been singing yesterday……got closer and switched to goldcrest…….then got closer and I got over excited and went for the binos instead of the camera. Clearly saw all the head markings.
Oh wow ...lucky you, and also silly you...binos instead of camera!!! Lol

Nice one Robbo. Always a thrill to see a new bird in the garden especially a scarce one like a Firecrest.

Thanks. Yes. Stuck on 60 for what feels like years now. Firecrest makes it 61 (though I do count flyovers.....).

All declared in the 'register of interests' so adheres to house rules.....no other way of counting cormorant, wigeon and hobby in most gardens. Think raven was the only other one in that category so not much different to 'landed in garden' list.
I saw Yang Guang and Tian Tian The Giant pandas flying over in their plane...added to my list lol

Jeez are we counting male and female now rather than just the species!!!lol
A will need to start my count all over again then lol
