CHRISTMAS TEASERS - THE ANSWERS






I know you've all been on tenterhooks (?) awaiting the answers for the series of picture teasers I posted just after Christmas!  To those that tried and to those that failed miserably (sorry!)  thanks for taking part, I hope you enjoyed the challenge?



But first a picture of a Male Kestrel that posed for me in the sunshine a few days ago close to Marsworth Reservoir in Hertfordshire.




And now...the answers...



#1 Blue Tit

#2 Robin

#3 Kingfisher

#4 Mallard (female)

#5 Starling

#6 Blackbird (male)

#7 Dunnock

#8 House Sparrow

#9 Marsh Tit

#10 Goldcrest





And now he's gone!

Well Adrian, what can I say?

I'm sure you'll agree that we don't always have to know what we're looking at to enjoy the experience!!

All the best to the three of you for the New Year...[;o)

Hi Grace, thank you.

I'm sure that had it been your 'bird world' you'd have been top scorer, no problem!..lol.

I hope it's stopped snowing there, a little bit of snow is photogenic but a lot of snow is a pain in the butt (arse sounds much better!)

Stay warm and safe and my best wishes go to you and your family for the New Year...[;o)
