Hello Peter a lovely shot indeed here .. looks like he is helping himself to the new buds that have appeared a little early

Best wishes ... Steve

Hi Steve, Thank you so much.

Late January, and just a bit of snow. I am sure this little chaffinch is grateful for anything he can get!

You caught the bird really well! Amazing that the tree already has started buds, hopefully they won't suffer in the cold spell.

Hi Gudrun,

Thank you so much for visiting. Yes, we have a little bit of snow now, but in truth the first time temperatures have really dropped below zero..
I am sure the tree will survive!!

Best wishes and a good weekend
Peter

Hi Peter,

How sweet! You had snow a day before us! You caught this Chaffinch at just the right time.

Best wishes, Rosa.

Hi Rosa
Thank you so much!
I am not sure if he was eating the buds or not, but I do put sunflower hearts out for them, and peanuts too, so I am sure he was well fed!

Best wishes and a good weekend

A beautiful winter image of a nice looking Chaffinch who appears to be enjoying one of those juicy fresh buds,
A big favourite Peter, have a great weekend.

Hi Roger

Thank you so much for visiting. They are very common in the garden here, maybe because there is always food out for them! I don't know if he was actually eating the buds or not!

Best wishes and a good weekend
