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 !

Nice to see your getting some birds in the Garden Hazel.
Forgot to show this Blue Tit.

Lot to learn
Tree Sparrows in the garden, that's not a bad result, Hazy! As you say, nice to get the other sparrows, starlings and others too, especially if you haven't had the feeder up long.
Good to see you got a couple of Beardies, at least, Jim, although you don't need to be up early normally as in my experience they often don't get out bed before 9am!
Looks like it's up you, Hazy, to be the first to tempt Walter out, as obviously both Jim and I have failed

Lol Nige, it would be nice if Walter was still around but not sure I'll be able to chuck some mealies or waxies out on to the path without providing a lifeboat for the worms - assuming the water levels are still requiring wellies ! Betting that even Walter had to climb above the ground level on occasion to stop him getting foot rot lol
@ Jim, good luck getting the car fixed and hope it doesn't hurt the bank balance to much - so costly these days.
@ Ann, Alaska trip sounds amazing and look forward to the photos in due course. I had to laugh as you described Mr GB and his sketchy directions - I can guarantee Mike is worse at directions (ie., its on that branch over there - right hand twig; it's perched on the top of the reed; its on the ground; ) I get so frustrated with trying to fathom out where he means, along with problems with my deteriorating eyesight where I need much more accurate information ! By the time I spot the bird/animal through my eye-glasses, lift glasses up to use binoculars, then pick up camera and try lock on to the target - it has often flown the coop so to speak ! To be honest, I'm happy to be out amongst wildlife exploring and walking …. and at least my ears are good lol
