A Nuthatch (Sitta europaea) taken in the garden a couple of days ago against a background of New Zealand Flax leaves, (Phormium tenax), which give this rather pleasing gradient pattern, which is completely natural. I have been trying to attract birds to different parts of the garden which provide varying natural backdrops.
Many thanks for your C&Cs on yesterday's upload, with a special thank you to Pete for the HC, marktc for the GEA and franken and MandyG for their UAs - really made my day and all highly valued and appreciated ![]()
