Redwing, one of maybe 5 today, all too high for decent shots. Didn't have the camera with me a few days ago when about 30 were feeding at different levels. The Stray is the only place I see them

Robin all fluffy against the cold. As always quite happy to sit and pose for several minutes

Is it a bird? Maybe it thinks it is, Squirrel perched high in the tree. At least I got a reasonably good picture of that!

As I said, I've walked these 63 acres for 50 years. A bird I don't expect to see is Kingfisher despite them living at the Uni and the ditch this bird was perched beside leads to another ditch which runs between Uni and Stray. In the 50 years, this is only my second sighting of this gorgeous bird, the other about 30 years ago. Very distant, would rather have a poor record shot than a closer blur.
