First one - definite christmas card!

Unfortunately I am of a sufficient age that I do not have to look up the reference for number 3!

My favourite pic though is number 2

No 1 is excellent and a definite Christmas card.
No 2 is cute. What was he doing?
No 3 made me Being a fellow Bristolian I knew exactly what to expect and it didn't let me down. I'm still giggling now. Thank you.
In 2012 after months of tests I was diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome. I was 46 and suddenly life made sense. I don't mean to offend with my comments so please tell me if I do so I can put it right.

Matt

Just love fieldfares - something about the way they call and liven up a winters day.

Great pic - shame the bottom bird has the shadow over it, but the picture is so typical of what they get up to - really like it for that.

@Hols52

Cheers Graham,

The fieldfares are a welcome sight in the garden this time of year. Normally they are very flighty, but I think the cold weather is making them more tolerant of my camera waving.
