My wife Margaret was delighted to have the opportunity of taking a photograph of this handsome but rather strange bird with a beak designed to extract seed form pinecones. I was more than happy and stand and watch her clicking away - my what a psstime for a couple of wrinklies!!! More of her efforts may be seen by typing in Magaret the Novice to your search engine - sorry cannot add more as I do not understand computers.
