New visitor to the feeders this morning ... never seen a Bullfinch here in LP before ...
A little blurry as only managed to get one picture as he was off like a shot almost as soon as I picked up my phone to photograph him

Re: Winter pictures 2024
Strange you should say that, last week I had two birds in my garden that I've never seen before - a Bullfinch and a Goldcrest.
Not at the same time.

Winter visitor to the visitor centre at Clough Head Centre on the Grane road above Haslingden.
Paul Jackman is creating a cracking photography hide there, for people interested in bird photography. The picture is my wifeβs not mine.

Not a photographer (taken on my iPhone) but an incredibly clear night sky here in Guiseley, West Yorkshire.

Not common around the Buxton area, though do recall them as a kid.Taffy on the wing wrote: βSun Jan 28, 2024 2:19 amAre these common now?........i used to dream of seeing one when i was a kid.
Someone released a pair about 20 years back nearby us. Think I used to watch one of their offspring in the fields behind the garden.
As Alp says, they cover a big area. The sort of kept to a timescale so, you'd always a chance of seeing it.
Lived a brief time ( 2009) in Norfolk. Saw them every day there.
As with most of our wildlife, loss of habitat/pollution takes a toll.
Buzzards ( at a cost to kestrals ) seem to have had a population explosion.

A lot more about than a few years back, at certain times of year we're tripping over them, that will do me nicely as I just adore owls.Taffy on the wing wrote: βSun Jan 28, 2024 2:19 amAre these common now?........i used to dream of seeing one when i was a kid.
