Hi all, was just finishing off in the garden when a bright yellow bird landed near me and started pecking at a few weeds. Pretty sure it's an escaped canary so hope it finds it's way home or it probably won't last long. 
I managed to get back into the house to find my camera without scaring it off but just as I was about to take a photo it flew up onto next door's roof, so this is all I could get:
A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

Sure looks like a Canary, BTG...and could very well end up a tasty meal for a Sparrowhawk if it's not too careful.
hope it survives
but at least it got to have a bit of freedom and fly free as it should 
oh poor thing ...... but maybe with the last of the frosts on the way it might be lucky.....
