Meadow Pipit or Dunnock?

This birdie was flitting around the juniper bushes as I walked in the birkwoods near Braemar yesterday afternoon. I was hoping to spot some deer in the hollow, but they were elusive! However, the local osprey is back at the nest, so I'll need to fit in a couple of hours with them some day soon.

Golf today. Wet and windy. Oh joy.

A beautiful little bird but it’s the way you have captured the brilliant background & DOF that lifts this photo. Osprey excitement! So glad they are back!
