Gull - white against white tricky lighting condition to get enough contrast.

A neat glow on the belly, maybe reflecting off the roof tile.

Yep I think so, kind of strange lighting nice clear blue areas of clear sky with some very hard to meter white areas of snow cloud, the gull was perched on a chimney top about 100 feet away with a very bright background behind him - I would have prefered the blue sky to frame him.

This is the first time in my life I have seen a blackcap, managed to capture it through lounge window.

That's an amazing shot, Vassilis. Your camera angle is so low, that it looks like you are partially photographing the coot under water (cool looking).

Nice one Sibil. You are the mockingbird king with all your excellent "mocker" shots.

Astounding shot, Shalu. As the drama unfolds, we are witnessing a food fight, or should I say a fight over the food. It will be interesting to see who the conqueror is. My money is on the cormorant that originally caught the fish.

A little siskin recovering rom a nasty shock after hitting one of our big windows. It decided to stay with me for about 20 minutes and climbed from my hand to me sleeve and then up for a real cuddle.

After a good rest it flew off to, I hope, a good long life?

Nicely done. Those are cute shots.
