This morning, I was surprised to see an unusual visitor to my garden feeders. replica breitling  Without my glasses, I could not clearly identify it so a rapid run to collect my bins and saw it was a male Blackcap.

Quite a rare visitor - the last one was three years ago - this merited another quick dash for the camera.

Expecting it to disappear when I gently opened the window, I was even more surprised when it just sat and watched me line up the camera. Then it obligingly moved onto one of my photographic perches, only moving to see off any other bird that tried to feed.

The light was not good - these images were taken at ISO1600 - replica watches so I hope it sticks around for some better light and remains just as co-operative. It was still there this evening so who knows.
