Reed Bunting

Emberiza schoeniclus

Up to the allotment at lunchtime to put the kitchen scraps into the compost bins and to re-stock the bird feeders.
By the time I'd walked 20 feet away, the birds were swarming round my fat balls. I can inform Red that it's all in how you present them....

Plenty of tracks from Mr Fox, and as I waded through the snow on the path, I noticed this little fellow near another allotment-holder's feeders.
Damned if I know where he found any reeds, to fit his name, though.

Later on, it was up to town and bought an early birthday present for M, and a Kindle for myself. I love it, so far :)
