I am hoping to visit Watlington Hill again this year which is a wonderful place to see them, I had hoped to go last year but was prevented by illness. My brother has seen them soaring over a village about eight miles from me so they are getting nearer :)<br /><br />I have a stack of rubbish Bullfinch photos taken at the weekend in the same (distant!) place as the Yellowhammers. Yours may be a little distant but is much brighter and less 'twiggy' than any of mine ;)ShySongbirdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08148381873578585910noreply@blogger.com
