As the seasons change, the bird species that visit the feeders change too.
I heard this shy little character long before I saw it. A sweet, mournful whistle that I hadn't heard before.
I eventually spotted her perched in the trees but it was several more days before she finally plucked up the courage to come to the feeders.

It took her a while EG Wow but I was delighted that she finally decided it was safe.
