Winter buntings, Brambling and Tree Sparrow - Jim Lawrence, Ouse Washes, 18th January 2004.     Picture 2.     Picture 3.     Picture 4.     Picture 5.
Some nice portraits by Jim Lawrence.

Long-billed Starling - Paul Rule, Cambridge, 13th January 2004.     Picture 2.
With what looks like an aviculturist's ring, one wonders whether this bird has been in captivity, unable to wear its bill down. But a second look by Paul and we are assured that it is not a ring.

3CY (2nd winter) Caspian Gull - Richard Patient, Fen Drayton, 10th January 2004.
Always a little tricky to identify at this age, these 4 cameo shots show nicely the look and feel (jizz) of a Caspian Gull.

Immature Shags - Jim Lawrence, Ely, 9th January 2004.     Picture 2.
An uncommon bird inland, Shags have appeared a number of times on Cambs. rivers during the winter.
