Hi All,
I'm completely new to birding so please forgive my ignorance. I've had two new birds approach the feeder and I'm not sure what they are.
The still photo is the only picture I have of this bird. Is this a blackcap? This is a shot from an outside camera. I didn't see the bird directly, so don't have any more information than is in the picture.
I also can't identify the bird in the two short video clips. It was about 6am a couple of days ago, and it made two attempts to get the bird seed but presumably couldn't perch. It seems to have a black stripe with a thin white line above across the side of its head and some white and black markings on the top of the wings. I've searched on a couple of sites and the Merlin app but haven't found anything that seems to match. Can anyone help?
