Bullfinch male
The bullfinches are finally back at my balcony. During winter they come and feed on the tree outside my balcony. I love the visit so I hope they stay. Here they feed on a weed I usually pick for decoration. Sorry, I don´t remember the name of it. So far I have seen 10 bullfinches sitting in the treetop so they might clean the weed too rather quickly. They I go out to pick new ones.
Shot through the window an overcast day.

 I finally managed to capture this very shy Great spotted woodpecker. A male. I rarely see females, not sure why.


The past three weeks the deer's has been gone. Yesterday I only saw 2 young  females far off in a distance. They have been hunting in the area so, of course the deer's are hiding in the forest 😭

I also added a female house finch I took many years ago in the snow. Made some edit on it :)

    If only I had the patience and skill to take beautiful images of birds such as these. The bird life at our home in Australia has changed in Melbourne since the bushfires have displaced many native birds from their habitats. On one hand it is delightful seeing these interlopers in the city but on the other it is a grim reminder about the changing environment due to humans lack of foresight and greed. The little wrens we watch from our terrace in France never sit still enough for met to attempt photographing them!
