These shots Simon have lovely colours and it's a great pose in the second shot with nice texture on the branch, well done.

Anthony, Adrian, many thanks. It's difficult to get close enough to the birds in my garden as I haven't really got anywhere to hide. I had to stand very still by my door for quite a while before they made an appearance.

Cheers. I like the way the wind has ruffled the first one's feathers. I forgot to put this one up yesterday that I quite liked...
