Nuthatch


Today's bird is a Nuthatch which I photographed yesterday. The sun appeared briefly so the light on the bird was quite good. I'm definitely going to include him/her in a future painting.
Today we've been at the first dog show of the year. Roxie had to stay at home because she's in season and we would have been better leaving Juno at home as well. His mind was definitely not on showing, it had been left at home with Roxie and Roma (who's also in season).
It was nice catching up with our friends though and looking at this years puppies.

Delightful nuthatch, one of my favourite birds. I had a surprise visitor to my garden on Friday - sat on my feeder was a sparrowhawk!
