Chaffinches, Dunnock, Robins, Tits, Blackbirds, Pigeons, Fieldfare.. etc etc . Now its just empty and miserable...

    Hmm Aren't the legs the wrong colour for a common gull? I read they should be more greenish.

    Cheers Banana. That's cool THE30, Song Thrush are surprisingly dominant in my garden. I do wonder if its the same 2 though sometimes.. I can only imagine they are losing half of their weight over night. They go to bed enormous and the next morning look so skinny. I cant imagine its 2 new song...

    Canon SX50 Specs

    Have had this camera a little over a week, Consider all the bird shots in my stream are through double glazing window. The starling shot from around 70ft away. I think its a pretty amazing camera. My only advice would be to not use it in automatic mode. It seems to like to make everything overly...
