Snow! (1 Viewer)

Well, we have the first snow of the winter. Not a lot, but enough to bring more birds into the garden. Lots of the usual suspects - Goldfinches and Starlings are the most numerous, followed by Blackbirds, Collared Doves, Wood Pigeons and Greenfinches. it is good to see a few Greenfinches, as I thought they had all succumbed to the virus.
I am also very pleased to see a visitor from last year again. The Pied Wagtail is back again. It would be a challenge to get a photo of him as he is always on the ground, but I might set up a low perch to take his portrait, along with a Chaffinch and a Dunnock. The trouble is, it involves lying down on the ground to set it all up, and it's a bit cold for that!
I am very pleased with the set-up now. It doesn't take me long to set everything as I want it, either with the hide or by remote from the conservatory. Today I'm in the conservatory. I would like another shot of a Long-Tailed Tit today. I have one good one, but mostly I get goldfinches. Oh well, back to the remote.
