I think I am a bit OCD with photography as Christmas day I could not resist a few images of a Fieldfare in the garden. These feisty little thrushes defend every bit of food they find. They love apples and defended them against all other incomers.

After the fantastic time we had in Aberdare NP, we continued to Mt. Kenya.
We had only one night there (September 5th), in the magical Castle Forest.

Hi Sam, I hope you all had a good Christmas.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of the Fieldfares, their blue-grey head and nape make it a beautiful bird. I spent Christmas day at Stithians photographing Goldcrests and Redwings feeding near the boardwalk area. A flock of 30-40 Fieldfare flew overhead in loose formation but landed on the other side of the lake out of reach for photos.
Have a Happy New Year!
Nice photos - kind of reminds me of our Meadowlark!
ReplyDeleteCracking images such vivid colours as were your Waxwing shots.
