With breeding season fast approaching these birds are staring to look their best and they really do look amazing with their spectacular plumage and head 'gear'
That ruby red eye is so characteristic and set among such gorgeous plumage makes these birds rather special.
From the RSPB:
The dunnock is a small brown and grey bird. Quiet and unobtrusive, it is often seen on its own, creeping along the edge of a flower bed or near to a bush, moving with a rather nervous, shuffling gait, often flicking its wings as it goes.
Genoeg vogels op de foto vanuit dit hutje om vogels te spotten, maar die zullen niet zo bijzonder zijn denk ik.
Castricum, Nederland
Enough birds on the photo from this cabin to spot birds, but they won't be that special I think.

Male Pintail - Slimbridge WWT - taken in poor light in the pouring rain but a pleasing composition. I often envy those who submit photos of wildlife from "sunnier climes" where high shutter speeds and lens' "sweet spots" are the norm. In the UK we suffer from the dreaded "white-out" skies for a lot of the year lacking any contrast but perhaps it makes us better photographers overcoming these "challenges"?
