First time I've ever seen these little beauties in the garden!! Snowstorm must have brought them in. Wonderful !! 2 pairs  ;D
Took me ages to identify  ::)

Reedbunting?

Yes, Hugh ! ....sorry, not giving you a gold star ...you've got plenty already!!  ::)  ;D

Do they visit your garden?

What a shame we can't give you a star for the photos! = Tim

No, Di, but an occasional look through the binoculars when the trout aren`t biting does help to broaden one`s horizons.

I would have seen those and though "Nice sparrows" *sigh* must read up more on birds!

We have ring necked parakeets round our way - there's a big flock of them in Richmond, and they're spreading!!!

We've parakeets here in SELondon as well, just one pair though.

 Pleased to report that a pair of long-tailed tits have taken up local residency as well.

Tim......Oh for a super zoom lens !!

Jammyd  :) ......it was the whitish breast and large black raggy beard that sent me searching !

Great!.....Reed buntings back again today...so attempt at photo !!


     


Well.....I tried!!  :-\  ::) ( bl**dy cold day to be lurking in bushes!!  ;D )

I reckon that that deserves 3 stars?? = Tim

You are too kind Tim!  :)
