Just look what I saw out of my kitchen window, Monday lunchtime.

He came back again yesterday and sat on our fence, but I didn't have the camera handy and he flew down onto my neighbour's garden.

(It's not as clear as it could be but I did take it through the kitchen window)

You know what he's after? Where's the nearest fishpond!

How lucky you were to see him.

That's superb - I have the camera, just need to learn how to use it, then maybe I'll get a visitor too!!

It's surprising what you can see in the back garden. I always keep my camera handy. Good photo Monica.

Brilliant photo, Monika - better than any I have been able to get of my second favourite bird.

What a super bird. I don't have a fish-pond but would gladly buy him some fish if he would pay me a visit. cheers Penny.
