Thanks, Malcom!
This is a 1st winter male, it is very similar to the one I have just posted. There are quite a few sub-species of this but winter birds are difficult to separate. Females are much duller, only having traces of blue, if any.
Thank you both :)
Yes, 1st winter (added that to the title) :-)
I like these guys :)
This one let us get so close. Whatever it was he was picking for, he was not interested in me being about 3m away from him :)
Wunderbar! We have to see this bird one day...
Is it a female or a male (1st winter)?
Very nice photos! Cute bird,
