Fieldfare II (Turdud Pilaris)

Firstly a big thanks for all the wonderful comments on my last image, really appreciated. It has been many months since posting an image and it is good to be back watching - let's hope the coming winter turns up some great birds for us all. I for one am hoping to see the retum of siskin & lesser redpoll to my garden and hopefully something new to add to my list, that would be good. In the meantime I have another couple of images of the fieldfare I would ike to share with you, here is a pair that I was lucky enough to get. Not quite sure there is out of focus berries yet the bird behind seems reasonable focussed, unless they were moving?

Stuck for words Alan!! this is without doubt the best image you have taken mate and I mean that sincerely because you have posted some absolutely wonderful images my friend, but this IS a classic which should be in some book or field guide, it would grace any wall my friend, :t::t::t:
