Hedgerow Birds at Lackford Lakes Nature Reserve

A few residents at the local Nature Reserve, the light was beautiful, I chose a vantage point where the sun beamed on my back and it was toasty, the grass in the shade was still covered in frost.

Thank you for your comments, a Robin is a very obliging muse, they don't show fear of the Sparrow Hawk like other hedge birds, they come and sit in the open on display for photographer friendly periods.
