Bob Ottey lives in Omagh, Northern Ireland. He is a retired head game keeper, retired riverkeeper, retired fieldsports writer and wildlife photographer. He maintains a photostream on Flickr that makes me green with envy every day.
Here is one of today's kitchen window shots.
He has some very different birds from what we see here of course but one of his subjects is a familiar looking chickadee.

Their robins are prettier than ours. A magpie! I don't think I've ever seen a magpie. Thanks.
