beautiful

Such a beautiful bird but not one I really like stalking my garden for my precious little birds.  The first I knew of it being there was a great tit flying at full speed into the window then a flash of grey as it turned and flew over to a perch.  It sat there a while.. all the little birds scattered into the hawthorn hedge and into dense evergreens around the garden.  It waited patiently but spied me trying to get a better photograph of it and left.. phew!  In the meantime I had grabbed this slightly shaky photo. 
It has been good to have the power back on and be able to catch up with both the curling matches.. so exciting both of them!!  Yippity doo dah!  Fun fun! 
Storm Franklin is sounding horrible outside.. keep safe all
