Garden Visitor - Dunnock

Another cold, frosty, bright morning here in the 'shire.
Feeders stocked and birds aplenty. Caught this chap sat on my fence (which seriously needs painting) and knew it wasn't a sparrow but had no idea what it was. Checking my ever-ready book of British Birds, I identified him as a Dunnock and read that they are 'very sparrow like' which I tend to agree with.
They are also rapidly diminishing due to the Cuckoo, believe it or not.
They are also quite promiscuous and have several wives !

He is a beauty, and I love your fence just as it is, so much more interesting with its textures and color.
