chaffinch fringilla coelebs

This male Chaffinch has been on his own for a few weeks but today we saw a female for the first time this spring.

A couple of images of common species taken locally this time

We had a lot of snow on the 17th of March but it quickly melted.

Woke up this morning and everything's covered in snow, including every branch and twig. Winter's here at last. :-)

Hope it's a spruce... :-)

Nice to have some decent light again, makes you want to snap everything in sight.

A flock of chaffinches was feeding on the road side. When we get closer, with the car, the flock flew away except one bird. This one looked at the car and at me and went on feeding. So I could take several photos without disturbing the bird. Shortly after she fallowed the flock.

This chaffinch fighting with the winter should be a good up load for my 50t birthday.

I thought the setting and background were unusual.
