    Default Black Redstart - Cernay France

    Set the hide up in the garden today, waited for an hour and a half before the Redstart turned up and managed a couple of shots before I froze to death. You will notice that I tried tempting it with some suet, but it totally ignored it and moved onto the non-suet post.

    The last picture shows the hide up on the right, picture taken from the kitchen window.

    Lovely shots of a smashing little bird, Rolf!

    Your hide looks a good size - much bigger than I thought it would be!

    Yes, it's a two seater Catherine, but also quite weighty to carry around. Very comfortable however.
