A bird I didn't recognise, perched in a tree looking longingly at my bird feeder, but put off, I think, by there being too many people around. Maybe goldfinch sized, but slimmer, with a slimmer beak, & a small crest. Sort of greenish-grey, bands on wings. Any ideas.
Blackbirds (male & female) & a blue tit which weren't put off at all. Looked up from fixing together my new garden tool store to catch the eye of a blackbird with a mouthful of something wriggly, only a few feet away. I think he's a regular, & used to me - and obviously not put off by drilling & hammering. The female & tit both popped by for a feed while I was sitting reading in the sun, only slightly further away.
