| |  The Bird that did the trick...
I have been very interested in watching birds for a long while but the other day I saw a Jay for the first time and it was feeding from my neighbours bird feeder. I was able to get quite close to it and was blown away with the vibrant colour on it's wings. That made me do something about getting a pair of binoculars to view other things as well. ... 
On second thoughts after viewing the Jay picture in A-Z - this bird had bright blue flashes on its wings. Wonder if I have got that right!?

You're very lucky, I've only had a glimpse of one as it darted through the trees.
Not jealous at all

I'm so glad that I guessed right the first time and thankyou for your input.
Tend to procrastinate when it comes to buying things as I never seem to get the right one. Oh well! Here's to keeping my fingers crossed... | | |
