I go past this area every morning and evening with Barney but I have not see the dunnock or whitethroat on this perch since. Maybe there is still time for another shot, there is always something somewhere, - just a matter of being there..and ready!
All C & C welcome.

Excellent frame.Beautiful composition .BG colors are nicely complimented the bird.Nice perch and bg.Loved the cute bird with Caterpillars (probably for babies) and great details.

Hi Jon,
Like this a lot - super clear detail, the background and the collection of caterpillars is a winner. I'm a big fan for open space but I wonder if you have considered moving the Dunnock more to the centre, as I find the space is "closed" by the stick and not really working - in my seldom humble opinion, of course.

Beautiful image, love the beak full of caterpillers and plain smooth BG.
