Aren't Starlings brilliant birds!

I've had different guests at and around my feeders since this harsh weather kicked in. Nothing as exotic as some of you lucky people but I've been admiring the Starlings that have started to visit. I get very close views of them, they really are wonderfully handsome little critters, vastly under-rated I think.

I bumped into my neighbour Chris this afternoon. He has had a couple of Bramblings in his garden here in Eglwys Fach, plus a couple of Yellowhammers and a Blackcap these last few days.

This blog will be two years old on January 1st, it seems to be going quite well. As I write I notice that there have been over 142,000 visits so far.

Merry Christmas everyone.
