Hi all, I'm hoping to share photos of the birds that visit our garden, many right outside my window.

Re: In a Scottish country garden
Efterne'en aw! Sorry, afternoon everyone 
It's not a nice day here at all but, I am back in my chair, next to my window, watching the wee birdies getting by in this awful weather, I just witnessed something I've not seen since we moved here and the Yellowhammer became a regular visitor, two males going at it like we see many adult (males?) doing! They've always just got on out there, until just then.
There you go eh?
Have a grand weekend all

Re: In a Scottish country garden
All a bit chaotic out there this morning, I've been sitting here, tryping away 
trying not to jump up every few minutes to grab more shots but, trying to keep an eye on what's occurring! You never know and I'm expecting new youngsters any time.
There were around four young Tree Sparrows this morning.
Three Siskin, two adult males and a young male.
The Blue Tits have suddenly re-appeared, two dashing out and in, feeding young????
The Jackdaw adults are grabbing and dashing away, watching them, they look like they're shopping ...one of those, couple of them ....
The Starling horde has been and gone
Several Goldfinches, including two youngsters
But ..... three GSW, two accepting each other, male & female so probably the pair? The other got chased off swiftish but, no young .......... yet
A Pied Wagtail keeps dropping in and a couple of male Yellowhammers.
The Chaffinches are always here but no young seen yet.
A busy morning, so far. Just uploaded photos off the camera to run through now
