Liked this image with the line of footprints.
Pretty sure these are redshanks - I'm not great on waders but these are common and the most likely.
Always lots of curlews on the estuary.
The snow brought a lot of birds into the garden. Loads of blackbirds, all chasing each other off whilst the thrush nipped in and got the food and then these lovely redwings appeared. Unfortunately all my photos were blurry - I think they were actually too close and I had the zoom lens on max. Went through loads of suet pellets , mealworms and sultanas but worth it for these visitors.
great photos sumac, is that a coal tit on your last shot, not seen any around here for quite a while, good to hear from you.
ReplyDeleteHi there,
ReplyDeleteYes, that's the coal tit, it has been around quite a bit. No birds were really abscent during the cold snap, although there seemed to be fewer goldfinches. I had 5 yesterday though.
