I visited my Mum and Dad in Northants today. We had a nice meal, exchanged Easter eggs and then I found them a nice female Brambling in the garden. I wonder how long it had been there?
Non-birding parents (I know you're going to read this), I want to know if it's still there tomorrow!
What to look for:
- pale belly
- orange on the breast and in the wing
- white rump
- spotty flanks
- yellow bill
- eats black sunflower seeds
Couldn't resist the cute Coal Tit...
The morals of the story are... always visit your parents at Easter and never leave home without your digiscoping gear.
