#1 is a lovely capure. Chaffinches are one of my favourites.

Defintely a Yellowhammer too - you can tell by their song 'a little bit of bread and no cheese It does work!

Good shot of the chaffinch, clear and bright.
The yellow Hammer. A few of these come along from time to time into my garden and I have set up my camera ready for them. Since then though, I haven't seen one!

Lovely pictures, especially the chaffinch.

Yellowhammers are lovely birds, but sadly their numbers have declned in the uk a lot over the last twenty years or so.

Don't procrastinate if you can put it off 'til tomorrow!

Nice captures, #1 is really sharp.
Are the yellowhammers native to the uk??
