That's a good one Snappy, a winter visitor for me.

I have had an odd one in the garden, only during the winter though.

Stunning birds. Only seen one twice myself. Well done.

Great one Snappy.

Nice shot SM, we have them down the lane but they will NOT stand up and pose

I spent a great deal of time watching a few of them yesterday....Nice shot SM
