hi
this little chap flew into our window this afternoon and is now sitting in a shrub looking a bit dazed! it is very small (smaller than most garden birds e.g. robin and sparrow), appears to be a fledgling but i'm not sure what it is. 
cheers

It looks like a willow warbler or a chiffchaff!
They often recover... so leave it to regain it's sences.. and it'll be off in it's own time! |

I concur with Chiff-chaff, cracking photo too, even though it looks a bit stunned.

cheers folks
chiff-chaff it is then. never seen one before so pleased with that .
the fact that it was bit stunned allowed me to get close enough to get a decent shot with a compact point and shoot job.
cheers

I'd say chiffchaff too. Think I'm right in saying that a willow warbler has lighter coloured legs. Lovely photo Marvin. | | |
