Bird watching

I know I keep going on about the new camera but it has brought a new dimension to bird watching above and beyond using my binoculars. Apart from the fact that it looks less dodgy to the house at the other side of the lane who must have wondered why I was always standing at the window looking into their kitchen.

Anyway, this is what I had the pleasure of seeing today. We had a nuthatch coming to the bird feeders but I haven't seen it for a few days so more pictures to follow when it returns.

That second bird is a Dunnock (or hedge sparrow) - they look like sparrows but aren't! They have bluey-greay breasts.
