This Fieldfare appeared. He disappeared when the weather turned mild, but this morning, freezing temperatures brought him back into my garden. This picture was taken at 08:24 am.
The Lesser Redpoll made his appearance for the count. This picture was taken at 08:46 am.
The female Blackcap also turned up to be counted, not to be missed out. Not a good picture, I took it for record shot. This picture was taken at 08:34 am.
So you can see from the times these three pictures (above) were taken, how lucky I was when I was doing my bird count. The other pictures (below) were also taken this morning, I tried not to cheat with these by using the Auto mode, but tried different settings.
The best shot I have managed to get of a Siskin. This picture was taken at 08:49 am.
I took several pictures of the Goldfinch, they are easier than the other birds, they do seem to sit still long enough for you to get a reasonable shot. This picture was taken at 08:36 am.
