Certainly a nice bright morning and the birds knew it, 15 GOLDFINCH whizzed around the veg garden, where a YELLOWHAMMER sung. From here I could hear NUTHATCH and GREEN WOODPECKER, the fields below held SKYLARK, COMMON GULL, BLACK HEADED GULL, REDWING, FIELDFARE, BULLFINCH and loads of PHEASANTS that appear to have escaped the gun until the winter maybe!

The lake was partially frozen and a couple each of MALLARD and MOORHEN were the only signs of life, just in the wood a small flock comprised SISKIN, LONG TAILED TIT, COAL TIT, GREAT TIT and a MARSH TIT. Heading back to the car a GREY WAGTAIL flew over and a KESTREL blended in well with the oak it sat in.

That Kestrel certainly was cryptic , especially from a distance .
We had a similar sunset , one minute dark cloud , next , a searchlight on us . Nice shot .
Hi Alan.. Nice place to take photos.. Beautiful pictures.. .. Congrats
Still awaiting my first Greywag for the year Alan, swap you for a Cormorant :-)
You did very well to spot the Kestrel from a distance Alan, well captured! Good to know the Pheasants escaped the guns :-)
Beautiful Robin and landscapes!
Very nice :-) Alan
The robin but you kestrel in the tree.
The photo with the sun is quite nice. I can then really enjoy hours :-)
U na też jeszcze jest zimno i nawet śnieg. Dziekuję, ze spotkałeś na spacerze mojego ulubionego rudzika. Pozdrawiam.
