A Woodchat Shrike atop a dead branch. It’s a side view of the bird looking towards the left, with out of focus vegetation in the back ground. This bird was photographed in the Extremadura region in Spain last June.

A Yellowhammer with his back to the camera and looking to the right. He is stood on a Hawthorn branch that is just sprouting its leaves, with out of focus branches and leaves in the background.

A Common Whitethroat with ruffled feathers stood on a Bullrush stem amongst vegetation. The bird’s chest is facing the camera whilst it is looking towards the left of the image.

Three House Sparrows bathing in a city park water feature. The birds are sat in a row (male, female, male) in a shallow area, with deeper water behind them. The male on the right of the image has thrown water droplets up into the air.
