That's just super John. I have them feeding outside my house which is the first time I've seen them in 7 years.....there are literally hundreds of these and Redwings in Essex at the moment. :toast:

Very flash, John.

I got a nice surprise when I saw this picture. I'm not familiar with Fieldfares but I think this is a terrific picture. The background is very complimentary too. :wink:
(Maybe the bottom right annoys me a tinsy bit though :redface: )

That's the fieldfare shot I want! Sadly, not much likelihood of them in my tiny garden.

Another lovely image John. Can't seem to attract these to my garden no matter how many apples I put out. :smile: :wavey:

Very crisp, beautiful feather detailing and colours and the part-open beak just adds a smidge of dynamism; very nice indeed

Excellent! There are plenty around here this year, but I can't get a shot.
Posted by Colin Crowdey on January 10, 2010 at 5:27 PM
excellent John - I think catching the beak open makes this shot

cheers
