What's Buzzing or Flying near You Today..?? Mark 2..!!

I am very chuffed with this shot - taken with my new Lumix FZ45 today. Such wonderful detail . Is it a juvenile blackbird or a thrush please?

 

Nice one Jenny .... looks like a young Thrush to me

 

Then that is a bonus. But will a thrush eat sunflower hearts Loli? That is what was in the pan,

 

Hmmm....on second thoughts....looking at him again ....you can't rely on me in an identity parade can you

 

Loli

, Scrungee says, on my Camera Quest thread, that it is a blackie. I replied "its very spotty". So, the jury's still out....

 

I think it's a young blackbird Jenny that's changing colour to a female's plumage.

 

Juvenile Blackbird Jenny, same as my earlier 'young ones' pic).

As he was in the sun here's another Siskin pic. we now get up to six so there's not enough room with only four holes on the feeders, then there's the the Goldfinches too!

 

He's a little smasher Strongy, such a lovely coloured jacket. SO THIS SEASON:ktykss:

 

I emailed the piccie to "Feathers" our bird shop at Salehurst.
Reply," a very nice picture of a young blackbird"
So now we know Loli,
would love a young thrush too,

 

Any excuse to post pics of these delightful little finches.
Four of five juvenile Siskins clearing up under the nyjer feeders this morning.
(Forth one is behind the manky Cauliflower).

 

This is cheating a bit because this bird was a constant on my bird table throughout the summer last year... not seen it this year though

 

Kazzie, you are so lucky. I would never have dreamt that a kingfisher would frequent a bird table? What was the attraction? Such an unforgettable colour,
Jenny
(also East Sussex)

 

It was the strangest thing Jenny... the bird table is just inches from my study window in a small recess. I don't really feed the birds in the summer, but do throughout the colder months and enjoy watching them. So, this little chappie would sit there for hours and got used to seeing me through the window. I'll never know why. You can see how regular it was because of the bright white poop which is also on the table under the roof.
