The Siskin - Always a lovely bird to observe and photograph.
I went looking for a group that had been reported at a certain location on the Parkland. They were feeding on seeds high up in several Alder trees. Unfortunately they had disappeared when I arrived, however I did find one female, which very kindly posed for me lower down in a hedgerow.
Hi Roy A beautiful gentle little bird that I donot see often enough. These are lovely photographs. I am just off to MAlawi now and the news is good. Allhtough everyone has whiplash and DAniel left side of his face looks like he has one 10 ounds with M Ali, they are OK. The Cure Hospital are leaning us a car to make out planned trip to Zambia so that is wonderful news. I know I will NOT have internet there but while away I read post (whwen I can and internet permits) but am NOT commenting. I have schedduled all my posts in. Have a lovely Christmas.
