Blackcap by jesika2

Blackcap

I THINK, it's a Blackcap, one of a pair singing to each other seen and heard on walkies tooday. Such a beautiful song from so small a bird.

Oh, lovely shot Jesika. Yes it is a male Blackcap, the female is very similar but she has a brown head. I had a male wintering in the garden visiting the feeders. I think it was about mid March a female appeared. They are not often near the feeders now, but both are still around in the garden. I suspected they nested last year, I am sure they are this year. If they are not nesting in mine, there is a very big unused garden ( behind hairdressers, beauticians salon),a few doors down, that would be perfect for them.

@markp @rosiekind @koalagardens @julienne1 I've seen them on Campus quite often but never had a chance to get a photo. These 2, singing to each other, the other not visible, were an absolute joy.
Thank you all for making my little birdie popular
