Over the past few years i have attempted without success to capture a image of the little Angel with a red breast that frequentley visits our lawn. In Warm weather he bathes in our little bird bath and is so proud to display his new family lined up on our lawn fence in summer. This little chap evades most approaches and then appears when i don’t have my camera with me. Alas today i caught him and his bulging tummy from inside our kitchen. Plenty of food available he came to plunder the goodies and i had my camera and miniature tripod at the ready on the kitchen window sill. He landed just before the heavy snow arrived and the shot was a little out of camera range but i did,not have a lot of time to take it . I have caught my tiny angel on camera. Made my day and i hope you all like it. Take care will be away for a couple of weeks as of tomorrow. Enjoy Tony

Well done Tony, its a great feeling to succeed, I`m still trying to get a good one of the Red Kite, he comes over daily and I`m determined to not let it beat me...

You got him at last! Well, at least the little angel got to fill his tummy before the snow fell, I hope the other wee chicks you both heard in the nesting boxes are all ok, mind you they couldn't have better accommodation to wait out the bad weather in! You really love your birds don't you?!
