The sun came out at just the right moment for this juvenile chaffinch ️ what a difference the sun makes, even if it was a bit on the chilly side today

Lovely photo Kevin, with a nice blue sky ... . I too have the RSPB book and compared Brambling and Chaffinch - they are very similar.
There are still a few young about yet. This Cygnet was taken on the canal bank a day or two since.
Thank you both for your comments. I had a drop on my nose too. It's beginning to get a bit chilly ...
