    At last they have deigned to visit our garden and sit long enough to be photographed. Not the best shot, but it was taken before my first cuppa.

    Lovely pics - mine stopped visiting when I had to cease feeding for a bit. But restarted, and hopefully they will return, and the parasite infected birds don't. I would hate to stop feeding again, now its so cold.
