The bird in question is a chiffchaff

Oh, OK! I have only the 'Siberian' Chiffchaffs here:
Phylloscopus collybita tristis (sometimes spelled "abietinus/tristis.)

Trumps my dull, damp and cold morning Linda Nice view of a curlew and always good seeing the little grebes feeding the young.

Nice to see the squadrons of geese arriving Linda. I like the action photo No4 with the deer off the ground.

Aye, Linda — the snaw an' cauld's comin'!
Beautiful shot of the lake with the reflection and I always have a soft spot in my heart for the wee birds like Chiffchaffs!

Time to start again... From last few days!

Good to see you back in business Linda. The Shoveler was nice to see.
P.S. I liked the lift music, did you play it yourself?
