A green woodpecker has found a nice supply of his favourite ants in our dry stone wall. I'm really happy with these photos - he was completely covered in ants and didn't seem to mind at all.

There were two wrynecks around the garden today. It was difficult to get a photo as they kept hiding behind branches.

This coal tit was more than happy to show off right in front of my office window though.

A wryneck was calling from the top of the garden, joining the red-backed shrike who was still around today. There's also still a whinchat around - coming a bit closer to the house for this photo.

A couple of green woodpeckers, a female blackcap and our sedentary brambling joined the migratory birds.

I couldn't resist including this picture of a red squirrel on top of our shed.
