A couple of hours in the garden.
 |
| Song Thrush (Zorzal Común / Turdus philomelos). |
After a bit of building work on the house in the morning I set the hide up on the lower terrace and spent a couple of hours seeing what came through the area.
 |
| Blackcap (Curruca Capirotada / Sylvia atricailla). |
The birds included a flock of noisy
Long-tailed Tits (Mito / Aegithalos caudatus) which did not come down for a drink but a couple hung around in the Quince tree and one gave me the time to swing the camera around.
