Whilst staying with friends in Sidcup I got the opportunity to capture a few pics of these regular visitors to their feeders.

Yes it was a bit of a surprise for me, Although my friends told me the local fruit farmers are up in arms and asking for a cull. Having looked on the RSPB website there are about 4,300 of them in the wild.
