Lockdown Day 20 (11.4.20)

Not being one to give up entirely on my photography during the lockdown I decided I would spend a bit of time in the garden and see just what variety of birds visit my back garden.

So first up:
  the local Magpies dropped in for a wash and a brush up

Although they were nesting in a tree close by I havent seen any fledglings this year !

Then I spotted a Dunnock on top of the fence

Unlike the Magpies the Dunnocks have succesfully fledged !!

I cropped this one too show the eyes being covered by the see-through, nictitating membrane, anyone who watched Game Of Thrones will think this is one of the whitewalkers !
