When my wife received a positive test at the start of the year in her job as a carer in a residential home, we both had to self-isolate for three weeks. I spent the time in the garden photographing the birds that visit our feeders. We had sun, snow, ice, rain, and fog, often all on the same day but this didn't deter the birds or me.

Also, check out my posts with cat photos here, here, and here.

    where we live in S.W. Oregon, we have groups of Bushtits. Similar behavior, except their tiny sweet noises are so soft one must listen very closely to hear them! The tails are just a wee bit shorter and they are a mostly plain grey colour. They love suet smeared on pinecones.

    In Europe, starlings are good, unlike in America.

    Very good photography. However, our Robins are larger, have an entirety red chest and only eat earth worms they find on the ground or berries in bushes. We consider those European Starlings to be pests and deter them from our feeders. We also frequently have Cardinals, mourning doves, and other N.A. wild birds.
