December 2014 Stonechat

Sometimes you don't always get what you go out for.  After waiting for a very rare (in our area) Dartford Warbler in the local park,
I got this shot whilst walking back to the car.  The light was very low!

December 2014 A couple from around my Small holding! Roe Deer and Grey Wagtail.

Went out early to catch up with some Roe Deer that are always around.  Managed to get quite close without disturbing them!  Also a lovely Yellow Wagtail.  These birds are found on clear streams usually, but in winter search around the mud for pickings.
