  4. Beautiful photo, Trevor. I keep getting glimpses of one in my garden but not managed a photo and I have seen a male too, we had them visit the last two Winters, lovely little birds.

    Love the Wagtail and the cheeky looking squirrel on the previous posts also.

  5. Thank you John. A regular garden visitor at the moment and more so than the male.

  6. Hello Bob.

    I tried for a long while to get a half decent shot but she always seemed to appear when I was peering out of the window with my camera tucked away in another room. Another one I hope to improve on if she stays about.

  7. Hi Estelle.

    A very pretty bird and in my opinion a better looking bird than the Male .. which is a rarity in the birding world.

  9. Hi Jan.
    Yes..they are little crackers and we are both lucky we have both the male and female visiting our gardens. It is only a matter of time before you photograph them.
