First 3 pics show Whitethroats (Sylvia communis). Last two show Brambles (Rubus sp.).

Ed, with birding it is actually all about 'looking-at and listening-to the birds'. The birds are really there!!! (sober guys appreciate that's miraculous enough)
To contemplate upon birds that 'might' be there, may involve a mysterie, but seriously, this ought really not to lead into mysticism.
I sincerely suggest, you to go no further into your 'hidden-knowledge-no-one knows- off' role, since expertise and any occult knowledge ought to have nothing in common.

Birding is all about emperical knowledge.

Well, if you've seen the birds in summer, it's not inconceivable that they might be a family of a parent or two plus some recently fledged youngsters. Maybe even more than one family.

If I want to picture/ shoot Penduline Tits I'll just take a walk in any poststamp sized park or the backyard.

Mixup / mistranslation between Penduline Tit [Buidelmees] and Long-tailed Tit [Staartmees]??

What an interesting summary of BF this thread is - featuring virtually no factual information about birds; a few rude posts; some uptight feuding spilling over from goodness-knows-what; and utter drivel from people like me.

All it's missing is a discussion about alpha optics :-O

and a rant about LGRE

Yep, hence my original remark 3. BTW can anyone tell me what species of penguin this is in the photo below?

Not a pinguin, it's an Invisible Rail (Habroptila wallacii) in quite unusal habitat though :king:
