We often see great pictures of the stars of the bird world but the ordinary birds never get a look in.
I would like to start a picture thread of those birds that we share our everyday lifes with like the Sparrows and Pigeons etc...
Lets all take our cameras out and give them a chance to shine.
Great idea for a thread Robert.

I think we forget just how beautiful these birds are, as these stunning pictures show.
Hear hear.
Good thread Robert.
May be not a garden bird but another bird thats not liked too much.

I love my pheasants.
This pheasant was on the path to the lower hide at Leighton Moss and very tame.
This a cheeky pheasant who regularly visits my garden. I have been known to have up to ten females at one time in the garden and up to three different males. This is the only male who uses the feeder!
Great pictures, everyone! Pheasants aren't "ordinary" birds! Wow, I'd love to have some visit my garden, they're gorgeous!Here's a cute gull:
Lots of mallards (and a coot):
A lovely crow:
and pretty sparrow:
