Someone challenged me to get the classic "on a spade shot". Certainly shows how small these birds are.
First effort before the weather closed in - wet windy stuff not seen here for a month before yesterday so mustn't grumble.

My fault - supposed to be doing something else! Very quick edit and tidying up after Noiseimage with history brush done in too much of a hurry!

May 10, 2007 09:27 | #10 Thanks for the kind comments - It is driving me wild trying to persuade it to pose the right way round. Have a small container taped lower down the spade handle and starlings get to it before the robin has a chance! Perches everywhere else but where you want it!
