Fieldfare

It felt quite wintery this morning with a heavy frost and frozen puddles.

Went out into the garden and bang on queue - the fieldfares have arrived to enjoy all the old apples.

Re: Fieldfare

Another cracking shot Phil. I did see a blue tit today, but apart from that all the blackbirds, sparrows robins, even a lot of the wood pigeons have gone

Re: Fieldfare

One ive still to get a decent photo of, there is a continental cold spell coming so should push birds like thrushes, brambling and hopefully waxwings over here.

Re: Fieldfare

Thanks for the comments folks.

There's so many apple trees over the wall (which just get left) and the fieldfares seem to arrive each year knowing there's a bounty to be had over the winter.
