    Yep Goldfinch, they are a lovely bird and make great sounds but where food is involved they can be wicked little yokes with other birds:)

    edit...

    a 3rd one showed up, so i decided to throw them some bread

    toasted the bread as it was in the freezer
    decided not to break it up so that icould throw it form a distance
    snuk out hid behind a car, chucked one slice and it went over the fence
    chucked the second slice a bit lighter and hit one of them on the head, 2 seconds later i could bearly make them out as the way so far away :(

    Look like Snipe to me (http://www.birdwatchireland.ie/Default.aspx?tabid=328, http://www.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/birdguide/name/s/snipe/index.asp). Another possibility is Woodcock (http://www.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/birdguide/name/w/woodcock/index.asp) but barring on back of head doesn't seem to match. Well spotted!

    Greenfinch, the goldfinch has a red cap and is more striking.

    They are Goldfinches NOT Greenfinches. When in doubt try a simple search on Google Images and it will almost always bring the correct result. :)

    It's that time of year when the foxes can often be seen out and about during the day. I spotted these two last week and had the video camera in the car.

    I met a big hare on the road west of Cullahill in County Laois today. I didn't want to risk hurting him, and because he seemed happy to stay on the road for a bit, I stopped the car and watched him for a while. Then he hopped off into a field and went about his business.

    i googled them and the live near water, i am about 5miles from a lake, but.......


    every night at around this time 12 swans fly by about 50 feet above the roof of the house, followed by about 15 swans 2mins later (they have been doing this for centuries, wonder if they dropped him or dropped unhatched eggs

    i am soooo going to make a large pond on the lawn this year

    Saw this guy while out and about the other day. Sorry for the poor quality pic, but he was at a huge distance at the time.

    Is it a buzzard?
