Gotcha...

Not brilliant Linda, but at least one showed up :-)

Well done Gaynor..your patience paid off ;-)

Came nearer today

That woman is chasing me again....I'm off

That's your lot !!  :-)

Thanks for "liking" !! it's good to see the birds returning to the garden just lately, a couple of Dunnocks, and also two Robins, could be Spring around the corner:-)

Lovely to see the sky tonight, clear, not a cloud and took a couple of shots of the moon and these two planets, Venus and ?, ....

sorry to interrupt your thread Linda :-)

I believe it's Jupiter. Wonderful shot Gaynor, the shadow across the Moon looks amazing ... 

Thanks for sharing.

Close up-ish of a dunnock on a country lane this morning.

It's pretty darn close when you zoom in Bob :o)

Lovely detail 

Wow yes Bob, lovely close up, I zoomed in (as PB said) and it took my breath away:-)

Thanks BD, I can tell my neighbour now, she also had looked out last night and wasn't sure of the names,

Second sorry Linda, hope you are well??

Dunnocks are gorgeous and thanks to everyone for the photos and comments. Some years ago when we were staying in a self-catering cottage over Christmas I wandered to the slightly overgrown back of the long garden, and a Dunnock landed on the top of a wood store box only 2 feet away where it hopped around without seeming to be the slightest bit afraid. It must not have known that it was supposed to be a shy and timid creature! That was the closest view I ever had of a Dunnock and its feathers were astonishingly beautiful--soooo beautiful that I wondered for a bit what it was...until it finally dawned on me that it was a Dunnock. It is easy to dismiss them as 'one of the LBJs' but they are definitely not boring or 'just a dull brown'. They are just as beautiful as a Gadwall or a female Mallard which are seemingly also 'just brown' but which, in reality, are covered in gorgeous, subtle, intricately patterned mixes of grey, several browns, creams, and a bit of muted rust on a Dunnock as well (not forgetting a Gadwall's striking black feathers!) I look forward to more photos, please.

Gaynor, Lovely shot of the moon and planets. There is a thread for moon pics--hope you have posted your photo there as well.
