Well it is for my wife, she’s skiing in Austria for a week leaving me at home to sort out some furniture that’s going to France.

But first things first I will have to set up the flash as the day is going to be grim with strong winds and rain.

In-between working in the garage on the furniture I can keep an eye on the feeding station, I am expecting a bit of sunshine so fingers crossed, and hopefully Redpoll and Siskins will turn up.

But I am not the only one looking for small birds the Sparrowhawk swooped in scattering all the birds and landed on the fence on the far side of the garden. I managed a few head shots before it disappeared from view.

The visit from the Sparrowhawk made all the birds very nervous for the rest of the day.

Fortunately I still managed some nice shots of the Redpoll.
