Haha I think this is where part of their name comes from ;-) they are definitely tiny but I am so pleased that all of your beautiful bird spottings are being added to my mission :-)

Thanks, Debbie! I found it because it was singing a lot. It was not easy to spot since it was tiny and at some distance. It was in the grasslands near Iona's Abbey.
