As always John, very impressed with how clean your windows are. Oh yes, and a nice picture as well!

Very nice John. Your windows must be clean or is it all that rainfall youve had.

that's a lovely shot John, perfect nuthatch pose and pin sharp. I get a fairly good variety of birds in my garden but alas I've never had nuthatches.

Classic pose there John

Just started putting my feeders out so here's hoping

The soft, even lighting on the bird is very nice, as is the pose.

Classic but very nice though

A beautiful shot John, haven't had a sight of one here yet - this really is a cracker and I love the perch!!
