What a beautiful morning in the garden … hazy sun and not a breath of wind … and not a generator, leaf blower or disc cutter to interfere with the birds… and a special song that allowed me to track down this incredible firecrest flitting around at high speed deep inside a conifer. I’ve probably only seen a half dozen of these in my life so it was such a privileged encounter. I wish I could have achieved a better view, as in my opinion they are one of the most spectacular birds in Britain. P
