WYSIWYG

What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

The Chaffinch is quite ubiquitous around the Hutch's area, and I have taken quite a few shots, particularly of the male... and because of that, I am deliberately sharing one of my rarer photos of the female of the species! As with all the warbler species, the song is crisp and clear...

    Beautiful. We get so very few finches these days that the nyger seed we put out for them just ends up sprouting - uneaten.

    Ubiquitous here too, but not to be taken for granted.

    A Chaffinch, a lovely bird, is a finch not a warbler, unless you mean that it warbles in such a lovely way and is thus, in that sense, a sonorous warbler indeed.

      Quite so, David... I think you know I know birds well enough, but accept that the wording was a tad indistinct! Yxx

    Hello :=) It's a beautiful bird, the male in particular and I hear it's delightful song in spring more than I actually see it.
    All the best

    I sure miss our bug-eating birds! The bugs are frozen under the ice and snow these days. I don't miss the bugs! XX
