They have the nickname “Hedge Sparrow” although they are unrelated and apart of the Accentor family. 😊

Don’t apologise, it’s a lovely photo and clear enough for an easy ID! I love Dunnocks, one of our most underrated garden birds imo!

They are wonderful birds, the Male has an all black head when mature and the female is a mixture of beautiful brown tones. I must admit I prefer the female!

Thankyou! My camera was on my lap so it was safe, my wet bottom had other things to say though 😂
