Every spring we get a number of migrating Ring Ouzels turning up here on the Wirral. They are usually seen briefly and are not a very easy subject to photograph, certainly not as tame as it's cousin, the Blackbird. My previous attempts have only really produced record shots, so I was very pleased to have finally been able to spend some time with an obliging male. A few birdwatchers had come to view the bird and when they left I settled down and patiently waited. I was rewarded with some frame filling shots as it busily fed on worms. A great result.
