Birds and blossom

I spent easter weekend in the south of France, and passed a tranquil Good Friday morning watching birds flock to this blossoming tree. I managed to photo Tree Sparrow (Moineau friquet)

Serin (Serin cini)

Greenfinch (Verdier d'Europe)

and a skulking male Sardinian Warbler (Fauvette melanocephale).

Other visitors to the tree included Blackcap (Fauvette a tete noire), Great Tit (Mesange charbonniere), Cirl Bunting (Bruant zizi) and Goldfinch (Chardonneret d'Europe).
