My friend the Dunnock

by autumnlight

I added one of my own pics + some pp effect for the background as it was so dull. He's left my garden now and won't return until winter.

That's a super picture, as David said it looks Victorian well done. Just wondered why you thought that you wouldn't see it again till winter, as in our garden there an all year round bird?

Hi John, for the last 10 yrs i've been watching the Dunnocks and the Robins, they only ever visit my garden and the neighbouring gardens in Winter, i've no idea why, it's always something to look forward to though, thank you for the lovely comment.

Superb again Maria. Why does he not stay in your garden? We have the Dunnocks all year round.

Thank you David, i have no idea, the Robin doesn't come either, maybe they can get hold of more natural food in the summer.

Maria, Again a stunner. It doesn't look like a photograph, it looks like a painting. Great work.
