Just a few for the last couple of weeks from the local. Recent wind and rain have made things a bit sparse, but nevertheless I hope they are of some interest.

Great captures, the colours on the European Goldfinch are superb.

In #4 are they Whimbrels or Curlews? I always have a devil of a time telling which is which. Lovely photos, I particularly like the Wren pictures.

+1 for the wrens

cracking set of shots love the wren

Thanks very much for the encouragement and kind words chaps, much appreciated.

I'm pretty sure they are Curlew, but my bird identifying skills are limited
