We had a beautiful visitor to the garden today - a bullfinch. Well, three actually - 2 males and a female. I've put a photo on my blog (link in signature, 2nd post down) - gorgeous!

Nice pic.Lovely vivid colours. I've not seen a Bullfinch in our garden this Summer although so far we've had a good selection. Still time

We regularly have a pair of bullfinches visit us so that they can strip th damsons of their fruit buds. Fortunately, they do not attack any of the other fruit trees.
