Busy Birds

The garden birds seem really busy at the moment, there are lots at the feeders in the garden.  I took a photo of this Chaffinch and only noticed when I processed it that it looked to have a problem with its feet. A bit of googling found that Chaffinches can be affected by the Papillomavirus, a DNA virus which causes wart like growths on the feet. Don't know if this is what is ailing the poor fellow. but I'm glad he got his food.

Apologies for not being able to comment as much as I'd like at the moment, I'm suddenly nicely busy!
