This afternoon's garden visitors

It's a while since I last used my `big camera' and even longer since I last used the 300mm lens (600mm equivalent).  I'd done some gardening (weeding) and bending over tends to take its toll on me now - so I had a late lunch and sat with my long lens until the birds got used to me sitting there. The pheasants just associate me with food and there are at least six who are very tame now, though this one was simply wandering  around the garden.  And for the goldfinches I think the draw of the food overcame any threat that I offered, especially as I was sitting very still and well, the blue-tits just nip in for a seed and are then quickly on there way.
