Tree sparrows

It was much brighter today, so there were lots of birds in the garden, catching up on the feeding after hiding from the wind and rain yesterday. (There's a pair of chaffinches in Extras.) 
The river Dee went mad yesterday, and I was thinking of going to take photos today, but it had gone pretty much right down again. It left quite a trail of damage up river. 
All the very best for 2016 to everyone, and to BlipFuture!
