THIS THREAD IS NOW DISCONTINUED, please add to the new 2020 thread HERE
Often we don't have enough photos to create a full thread so thought I'd start an Odds & Sods thread where you may want to add a pic or two when you don't have enough for their own thread . Feel free to add your rogues gallery here !
I only had a couple of pics today, one a Treecreeper and the other a very hacked off looking Great Egret huddled against the reeds trying to keep warm !
Forgot my secateurs again............
Ooh a Bullfinch, very rare around here, but we have got around 4 of these, taken on a dull day about 10 days ago
Black-shouldered Kite
A sparrowhawk bringing in a bank vole from the fields yesterday.
On the (polo) field outside our rental property there must have been over 50 Redwings that we spotted this morning as we headed out in the car; I took quick pics purely as record shots as they were too spooked to grab photos outside of the vehicle. Took these from front passenger seat and also noticed there was a single Mistle Thrush keeping the migrant thrushes company. Redwings being the smallest members of the thrush family of birds but so attractive. From a distance I thought they were sparrows or starlings !
the huge flock were spread out over quarter of the field but it was a thrill to see so many not far away from the back door !!
