Familiar Trio plus Robins 'Courtship Feeding' & Blackcaps

Trio of usual suspects in the garden - taken from the new lazy kitchen window set up

Goldfinch


Siskin


Sparrow


Plus a few more taken a few weeks back so probably around laying time. Probably the male giving food to the female. A very old bit of the wife's christmas cake which was still OK under the icing.

Sorry they're a bit distant, they're crops from long shots so as well as being small the background is getting a bit too 'in focus'. Thought they were interesting though.





Mr and Mrs Blackcap were at it too.

Thanks Richard. I like those too as I don't see them often.
