I have a few birds coming to my bird feeders that I am having trouble identifying.
They look similar to a kingfisher, but their colours are a lot duller and no where near as vibrant.
Any ideas please as to what they might be?
Many thanks.
Nuthatch perhaps
(Pardon the Scottish Accent)
That was my guess too. Like this?

Many thanks for your replies. A nuthatch was my first thought too, but these are more kingfisher shaped and size, with smaller area of orange and more blue area. The colours are more similar in shade to a nuthatch but they are more kingfisher shaped with the longer beak too.
I’ve been trying to get a picture, but I’m not having much luck at the moment. I will try again tomorrow
