Let me know when that tide's coming in won't you

Let me know when that tide's coming in won't you

Please stop raining.

I thought I'd cheer myself up this week with some colourful birds that I've photographed recently. The weather has been horribly wet for what seems like an age, but is really more like days. It has stopped me going out though, and that makes me sad. I get cabin fever quite quickly and need my bird fix on a regular basis. This will keep me going for a day or two.

Male Bullfinch at Pennington Flash.

Goldfinch in frostier times.

A very handsome male Stonechat at Danebower.

A Willow Tit at Woolston Eyes.

I've tried for a long time to get a decent shot of the Willow Tit. I got lucky last week.

  7. Beautiful birds, your Willow Tit looks a lot like our Chickadees. I hope they rains stops soon, wishing you a sunny day ahead. Happy Birding!

  10. Nice portraits Adam. Bullfinch are just so scarce around here I never get chance for a photo, never mind one as good as yours.

  11. What a great set of pictures - and as I have just written elsewhere I always thought I'd seen "something" when I saw a Bullfinch.

  17. What lovely birds! I must admit I am fond of that willow tit as it reminds me of our ever cheerful chickadee over here! It has a very sweet face!

  19. Your images are superb! Here in Florida the heat and humidity are cause for complaint, though at least it is possible to get out early in the morning.
