Had a nice visitor in the garden today. Manage to snap one of a pair of Red-legged Partridges walking about on the driveway. :) Photo taken through a double-glazed window.

What a great visitor and a good photo. :photo: :clap:
When I were a lad we always called them "French Partridges" but we never saw them anywhere near the houses.

Following on from finding Red Legged Partridges in the garden, today we had a visit from a pair of Grey Partridges. Only managed to get one on a photo. :)

Looking forward to the end of May. I can get my lawn cut.
