Heard these little beauties before I saw them, was out with the camera taking photos of collapsed aerials.
Nice capture there Rolf
Nice shots Rolf. Now those pictures are much more prettier than broken aerials
Yes, I guess so.
What beautiful little things - the third shot looks like an angel
The third one is where I asked him to show me the underside of his wings, they can be very obliging.
Great photos, Rolf!
We had one visiting yesterday, but it had scarcely landed when the bullying Fieldfares chased it away....
I just had one land in my tree - it was right at the back and went by the time I got upstairs to the camera, but the very pale underside and a flash of red must have made it one. I'll have to keep an eye out!
Was watching this one through the front window, he was less than a couple of metres away, unfortunately the window has cast a bit of a mist over the pictures, but illustrates the striking markings.
Can't you Photocopy that out though, Rolf?
It's a fab pic otherwise - and well worthy of your Gallery!
Great to see the Redwing eating berries too - makes the pic more relevant!
I've cleared as much as I probably can Catherine, it was a lot more wishy washy, they have almost completely stripped the tree over the past 36 hours, they are light enought to get to the ones the Blackbirds can't.
It's still a great photo, and the little 'foggy' bit it could be a leaf really..
Have you a better one in the Gallery?
If so, it must be a VERY fab one!
