Wanderer returns (Accipiter nisus)

Not one but two this morning. We've not seen any in the garden since around 7th January - I dare say much to the relief of the other birds ;) This male arrived about an hour ago and few minutes later was joined by a female on another fence. Amazing the size difference when you see them together. Unfortunately she was off chasing after a bird before I got the camera. Meanwhile he's still here. ISO800 1/40 f5,6 through the bedroom window.

Dang! It sure gives you some great views Ian. Such a great shot for such a low shutter speed. This is lovely.
