Oh bless! "My" wren was immediately outside my patio doors the other day, clambering up one of my clematis. I didn't dare get the camera for fear of scaring it away!

Great picture GW, i so love the little Robin i have one that comes each day and makes quite a noise if there is not something out for him.  We have just bought a bird feeding station so i hope to get some good bird photos, never as good as yours mind. :)

One tiny word or warning.....please remove the feed from those green mesh nets. They can and do trap the claws of the birds resulting in injury and death.

But a great shot indeed!

I have a special feeder for the fat balls I put out (a bit like a peanut feeder with larger gaps in the side). It doesnt take that much effort to remove the nets first.  ;D
