Well, it's been pretty quiet of late. I am only birding on my daily walks, and rarely taking the binoculars out let alone the camera. So unfortunately there has not really been anything new to report.
Having said that, I did have my garden highlight of the year (so far) this week, with a female Bullfinch visiting. I thought I could hear it's call while working away at my desk, but couldn't see anything from there. I carried on, but then it flew across my window to the trees opposite. I was hoping that the male would soon follow, but sadly it didn't. I can't complain though. What a bird to have outside your window. Just to think that I wouldn't have seen this had I not been working from home. A real bonus.
Hopefully soon I will be able to get out and about a bit more, as it's really starting to frustrate me. I need my birding and photography fix. Plus the best time of year is coming, in terms of migration.
Female Bullfinch
They are awesome. Especially because they are always together: male and female. Your shots are very fine!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of this bullfinch Adam.
ReplyDeletePhoto 2 is my favorite.

Hello,
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful bird, I am glad you were home to see it in your garden. Lovely photos. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post! Take care, have a happy weekend!
There are some benefits by working from home! Love these birds. They are in my garden now, but not close enough for capturing yet.
ReplyDeleteShe is a lovely little bird!
ReplyDeleteWow! I'd like to have a window such as yours. You seem to see the world of birds in in throughout the year.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a bullfinch before! What a handsome bird and gorgeous series of photos!
