Thank you so much. 🙂

I like this #photo for the #goldfinch in #flight. #birds #birds #birdphotography #🪶 #wildlife #avian #photography

So elegant.

Dance of the siskins. The #siskins were squabbling over food a lot. It does not help that there are only four feeding openings in the feeder. I have since topped it up with sunflower hearts. #birds #siskin #bird #wildlife #photography #fighting #food 🪶

I did my tally of #birds looking out at the feeding station today. I saw a #female #sparrow #hawk and she perched on top of the feeder. If I had been quick enough I would have got a #photo but I was too slow. Fortunately she did not kill anything (unfortunately for her). #birds #bird

#BirdOfTheDay and #BrownIsBeautiful. Here are two photos, one of a #dunnock and the other a female #tufted #duck #birds #bird #birdphotography #wildlife #photography #nature These were taken on 16.01.2026 when I was at #StoverCountryPark #Devon

#Siskins #fighting and in #flight. I found it amusing how the #goldfinches watched. #BirdsSeen2026 #birds #bird #photography #photos

My WIP1 (concept sketch) of a goldfinch on a berberis branch. This will hopefully be a watercolour painting. References are my own. #sketch #art #artists #bird #birds #workinprogress

Thank you - you are very kind. It might look better if I painted it because I could add the detail. I am not sure what to paint next (I am doing a series of UK birds).

I did this just for my own interest and will continue to do so as it is a positive thing to do (I tend towards the melancholic). You can see from my notes that of special interest is that the marsh tit stayed out so late (could have been the same bird), and I saw it eat peanuts for the first time.

No Bot these are definitely siskins.

Siskins squabbling over food from yesterday (25.01/2026). #BirdsSeen2026 #birds #bird #wildlife #avian #squabbling #fighting #food #sunflower #hearts #photography

I wonder if anyone gets the pun..

One blue tit comes in, and another comes out. #blue #tit #bird #birds 🪶 #photography #flight #behaviour #wildlife

As a result the shy greenfinch does not appreciate having his/her tasty sunflower heart perch being attacked by a great tit, and they squabble. #great #tit #greenfinch #goldfinch #sunflower #heart #birds #bird #birds #photography #widlifephotography 🪶 #feeding #behaviour

Two goldfinches; and a peaceful greenfinch settling down for a late breakfast before his/her new 'friend' arrives in milliseconds. #BirdsSeen2026 #greenfinch #great #tit #goldfinches #birds #bird #photography #wildlife 🪶

A marsh tit, coal tit and goldfinch on or flying from the feeder. I mainly like this image because it shows the marsh tit in flight. #marshtit #coaltit #goldfinch #birds #bird #DartmoorNationalPark #wildlife #photography #species #birdsinflight #flight

Lots of activity around the beloved sunflower hearts. Five species of bird. #greattit #goldfinch #bluetit #siskin #coaltit #birds #bird #photography #birdfeeder 🪶 #BirdsSeen2026 #flight #activity #sunflower #hearts #feeding #widlifephotography

Goldfinch in flight. I am pleased that I captured this image, but not that it is so 'noisy' and lacking in detail. I find smaller birds difficult to photograph in flight. Could I have some advice from experienced photographers? #Goldfinch #goldfinchinflight #flight #bird #birds #BirdsSeen2026 #🪶

Than you. 🙂 I will post some photos later. I managed to photograph the woodpecker.
