BULLFINCH, CHAFFINCH & ROBIN 26/02/2016.

Had a new visitor to the garden feeders this week,this beautiful male Bullfinch turned up on Wednesday afternoon and visited the niger seed feeder 5 times, it then left and I have not seen it since.
Still getting all the regulars such as the Chaffinch and Robin as well as the local family of House Sparrows.

GLOSSY IBIS LONGROCK 05/02/2016

  A few images of the Glossy Ibis taken on Friday at Longrock Marazion, this bird has been there for almost a week now giving great views. The weather conditions on the day were not good heavy cloud and light rain, it would have looked much better with a bit of sunshine.

MARAZION 03/02/2016

Finally managed to get out with the camera yesterday, after another long spell of very soggy weather.
Ended up at Marazion where there was a lot of common species around, and managed to get the images below of Rock & Meadow Pipits, Grey Heron & Oystercatcher.
