A real garden treat.
Couldn't believe this Meadow Pipit turned up at the feeders today, I live on a housing estate, albeit overlooking meadows in the distance.

Very poor light so just for interest rather than C+C.

The weather really has had an impact on where birds turn up indeed. We got up the other morning to find a pair of snipe wandering about in the snow on the lawn - gone by the time I got a camera of course!

There is a lot of good stuff turning up in odd places at the moment :smile:

Hi Brian

Yes although a common bird it is unusual to see them in a town garden - great record shot!
