So, we have some of the same birds here in our garden in Scotland as we did down in Essex, you’ll see a few here.
Robins, and a selection of Tits (Blue and Great included here) were in Dunmow as well as here in Scotland, but we also have an abundance of Chaffinches (included here), along with Nuthatch, Woodpeckers, Coal Tits, Gold Finches, and (we think) a Warbler of some kind (none of which are included here). We also have a pair of Buzzards living in a stand of trees about 300 yards away across the field.
My technique (or camera) was a bit rusty – I couldn’t get sharp shots with the Nikon D800 at all, but was successful with the Sony A6600.
