In the bleak midwinter.........




........the birds rely on a helping hand from us more than ever for food.
The temperature here fell as low as -10 degrees last night and the frost has never lifted all day. The good thing was that there was some reasonable sunshine which made photography a little bit easier and more enjoyable.
The garden feeders are very busy just now and the birds did not even mind too much when I took my camera out into the garden to try for some closer shots. I counted 3 different Robins flitting around at one point.
