Blackcap spotted!

For the first time ever, I saw a blackcap today in our garden at Lundin Links. I has just put some sunflower seed on the bird-table and was looking out the kitchen window at the birds arriving to feed. I didn't want to frighten it away so didn't go for my camera to try and photo it. However, if it comes back another day I'll try and get a picture. Although they are normally a summer visitor, there are obviously more birds staying in Britain over the winter, and becoming more common further North as well.
