Just had a wonderful visitor to my garden. This beautiful male came to eat the feeding birds but missed. A real delight to experience, it made my Sunday morning.
Taken with my Canon 7D and 100-400mm Canon Lens.

It is thought that this species was introduced to this country from continental Europe. Its population was previously confined to the south coast but it seems to be spreading northwards. It has been recorded in this country since 1922 but it may have been here longer.
The pictures were taken last year.A species I have been watching over a number of years.
