Beautiful Sunday - Bird Watching

in beautifulsunday •  5 years ago 

I did a spot of bird watching at a local wood that has several bird feeding stations. It is my favourite spot and is very popular with other bird watchers and photography enthusiasts.

There was a variety of birds that turned up. These are blue tits. They are a lovely mix of blue, yellow, white and green.

These are goldfinches which are quite striking in colour with a bright red face and yellow patches on their wing. The best way to attract them are to put sunflower hearts down.

I could watch them all day. Unfortunately, it was too cold to stand around for too long but the birds were beautiful.

Nice shots! what is your lens?

Thank you! For these I borrowed someone's Olympus 14 - 40 ez and Olympus 40 - 150.

Well, good that the birds don't find too cold so you can catch some nice shots here.

I'm a bot. I detect haiku.

They seem to be well looked after. Everyone takes food. 😊
