I was so excited this morning as I saw this bird I hadnt seen before itwas sat in the tree overlooking the bird table, I thought it looked like the Redwing in B'S picture , then suddebnly there was around 8 or 9 of them they settled on the Cottoneaster bush and began eating the berries, I ran to get my camera and guess what they all took to the air and flew onto the Rowan tree at the end of the garden, I managed to get a distance shot so hope you can recognise them.
