Little...the Wren is one of our smallest birds and rather unobtrustive as it prefers undergrowth and hedgerows. Fortunately it's very vocal and the unobserved bird is often easily detected. |

A proud looking adult male Green Woodpecker, often heard but not so easliy seen... |

The shy but distinctive Jay. Less than an hour after photographing the Woodpeckers the Jay appeared in the same tree above, harried by Magpies I managed three frames before it was chased away. |
