Marsh Tit (FOD)

It's not snowing up here inthe Forest of Dean, but it is frozen, brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. The Marsh Tit has been moving here and there, avoiding the weather. Not good for them.

As yet, there more of the Redwings (FOD)

This one has been ringed, can who knows the place he/she came from. It reads F3 on one side and the other side theres 94, but I couldn't get in far enough.

                                         And this is one for you Dave.

As you can see, there are still lots of berries, yum yummy.

Common Pheasant (FOD)

It was a good day, lots of sun and cold, chatter chatter chatter, went my teeth. It was -2 degrees. And I, would dream of being rather good at getting the pheasant properly, but, me and the camara didn't agree, as you will tell.

Harris Hawk

It was a dismal day, hence the Harris Hawk. At least, it is warm by my radiators.

Yet another Redwing (FOD)

I am in love with the Redwings, pure brilliants at cherry munching.

Grey Heron (Lydney canal)

Do I look like a serious bird?

Nuthatch at the Forest of Dean

I was a bit stuck with the time, I only had  30 minutes to photograph, so, it was the Nuthatch under my right eye. By the way, which eye do you use to photograph?

Black-headed Gulls at Lydney boating lake.

They are getting their mantle back, it is the start of WINTER. I love them, sincerely and honest.

Magpies on a wonderful day; I lied.

They do not tell any lies.

Moorhen (Lydney boating lake)

We had about 15 minutes when it became lovely sunshine, I was out doing the shopping. But, I might get one shot or three. So, I had a bit of luck, it was a Moorhen. Trusted friend.

Eider Ducks.

Guess what?

Wren, hiding. (Lydney canal)

I caught a darling Wren this morning, hiding from something. I don't know what it hiding for, but it's tucked away between the brambles and the post. No tail I'm afraid.

Female Upland Goose (Slimbridge WWT)

Don't talk to me about the weather!!!!!!!!!

Probably it is a female Papilio dardanus, (the African Swallowtail, Mocker Swallowtail or Flying Handkerchief).

I don't know what it is, a butterfly I think lol. If anyone can remember what it is, tell me! Oh yes, it was raining, hence the butterfly.

Robin (Forest of Dean)

Hello down there!!!!!!

It wasn't raining, two days in a row, I can't believe it!
