Couldn't believe it today- decided to visit Darts Farm and reserve in Devon as a day out with other half ( about 160 mile round trip from Cornwall). Lovely place but only saw 1 dunnock, seagulls, couple of mallards, 1 robin and 1 woodpigeon ( not that I don't enjoy seeing these!).Got home and was practising with some camera settings when I saw a flash of yellow. All that travelling and this beauty was in my garden- doh!! Never seen one before- sorry for poor pic as caught off gaurd- is it a siskin?
Thanks , Jayne

Thanks Alan - looking at the bird identifier I thought it probably was. Hope it comes back! Not many birds spotted today, but did spot a nice restuarant for lunch- so not all bad!!

Hi Bob- glad it's helped you. If it comes back might be able to get a bit clearer picture if I lie in wait!!
