correction, two new faces

25.03.08

following on from the other day,
I can report two reed buntings on the site.

Fantastic!

I assume it's a breeding pair, but must admit that the variety of plumages leaves me a bit unsure.
Let's assume a pair, it's Springtime after all!

here is a group of images which I just had to show,
as this is a first -let's enjoy it!

here in numbers at the moment, siskin.
Like redwing, from Scandinavia, though the siskin seem to be present all year round,
but in reduced numbers.

just one of a 20 strong redwing flock in and around the reserve over the past few weeks.
Quite nervous birds to approach, hence the distant shot.

wrens show best at this time of year.
