Over the past week i have seen some birds visiting my garden but not to sure what they are, at first i thought they were Great tits but when i got a closer look they were much lighter to be a great tits and when in flight had a srong flash of white the only bird i can think of that it could be is chaffinch any ideas?

Errrr... you might have to help us out a bit more here. What put you in mind (originally) that they were Great Tits and where was the flash of white?
Every day a little more irate about bird of prey persecution, and I have a cat - Got a problem with that?
with regards to the great tit it was simply first glance and size, but upon a closer look was much lighter coloured bird whit what looked like bits of white on the wings sadly i wasnt able to get a photo are get close enough to have a better view
i think every one is gunna struggle with this one. I think if it was the dimensions of a great tit its unlikely to be a chaffinch and the colours are very different.
Can you remeber what it was doing, becasue if it was very acrobatic then it may have been a great tit. If you can tell us what it was doing and what it was eating or something this would be a great help in ID'n this bird.
Cheers
