Cape Teal (Anas capensis)
It's not too cold, but there was a large amount of clouds around. And, there isn't any point taking my camera out, and me. Brrrrrrrrr. Here is a Cape Teal, photographed in the middle of September.

Magpie (Pica pica)
With its noisy chattering, black-and-white plumage and long tail, there is nothing else quite like the magpie in the UK. When seen close-up its black plumage takes on an altogether more colourful hue with a purplish-blue iridescent sheen to the wing feathers, and a green gloss to the tail. Magpies seem to be jacks of all trades - scavengers, predators and pest-destroyers, their challenging, almost arrogant attitude has won them few friends. Non-breeding birds will gather together in flocks.
