One from earlier this year, he spent quite a lot of time in my garden defending some apples, he was quite a character and I really enjoyed watching him, there was snow on the ground that lit him up and gave me the cool tones, hope they return

That background is fantastic and really makes your garden images a bit different. Loads of these flying in at the moment, saw a flock of over a thousand birds yesterday. :toast:

A lovely shot Karen :smile:
I don't think I've ever seen one of these birds.
Well captured.

Great shot Karen, an interior designer would be hard matched to better the colouring of the bird with the background. :biggrin: One of the best I've seen. :toast: :toast:
