        This lady is a bit wary

        But these are quite happy - they don't even care about the Jay that's hanging around

        He's not the least bit bothered.

        We've only got one male and five females back so far. I wonder whether the other two females got shot!

                  Three males turned up this morning but we still only have the five females. It's very dull out there so not good for taking photos.

                    A fourth male has just turned up. :blue thumb:

                    When it has markings like this is it given a different name? (Golden/white etc. :scratch:)
