[QUOTE="halftwo, post: 1691830, member: 45720"] [b]Snow Photos[/b] Is there anything more beautiful than a Bullfinch in the snow? One in the front garden feeding on birch seeds, filling its face while the chaff piles around its bill. Jet-black tail jammed into white behind: a stick in snow, just-blue-grey back, cleft from coal-black primaries by a white wing bar, fluffed-up rosy belly, as round as a snowball, rising to bib and cap. A smiling delight. A couple of Redwings too, and, overhead: Lapwings looking for pasture, their piedness snow-enhanced. A Nuthatch clamped to the oak watches a Coal tit snatch a nut from the Robin-guarded feeder, then sails in with soft sii-sii-sii, to plunder the hoard. A Tree sparrow calls somewhere near - still steadfastly indepedant from the human-sourced food. Anyway - here're some pictures chez Halftwo. (Fingers crossed.) Well all my attempts at uploads have failed! Will try again later. Well I tried & tried, sorry, even an hour with photoshop re-sizing didn't help. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! [/QUOTE]
