This Partridge is another example, a shot ruined by a single blade of grass. I really liked it too.   |

Also got a rather shaky shot of this Pied Wagtail (A female I think?)  |

A couple of life firsts for me
The first one is a Hawfinch (seen but never photographed before today) 
The second I've never seen, a Pied Flycatcher  |

The second I've never seen, a Pied Flycatcher | Jeepers Kev, what a fabulous pair of pictures. I've never seen either of those birds. I'd particularly like to see a Hawfinch in the flesh.

Well done Kev, I've never seen a close up of either of these. The only Hawfinch I've seen was at the top of a very tall tree. |

Cracking images Kev, especially the female Pied Fly. I have yet to photograph one of those so I am a tad bit envious of that shot.
Where were they taken, the F.O.D? (perhaps Nagshead).

My bird of the day is the local goshawks return to my area  . I got a fairly good view of him as he passed by the garden . |
