These two have been coming to the feeder in the early mornings for the last couple of days.
The male looks kind of grumpy, but he seems to get along OK.
The female is much more cheerful looking and not quite as watchful.
I would have thought that they would be nesting by now, but I guess not
Hopefully they will keep coming back for the summer.
love their greenish beaks.
ReplyDeleteIncredible shots Ian. B
ReplyDeleteI have only had them at my feeders once! I love the look of them.
ReplyDeleteLucky you! They only ever pass through briefly - they never stay!
ReplyDeleteWhat a treat - those down turned beaks do make them look a bit grumpy. Maybe they've already hatched out their clutch and are pair feeding! Hard to say.
