    ….with a difference, because I reckon I know what it is. First correct answer gets a signed photo of me in my Easter Outfit.

    Here’s a clue: these are common birds across all Ireland but they are not regular garden visitors; I put out niger seeds hoping to attract a red-faced bird and I get these red-headed birds instead. I’ve already become quite fond of them.

    I’ve got it wrong twice now,
    and demand my signed photo.

    You may as well post it here,
    cos I will anyway,
    and you can pursue me
    for copyright infringement
    through the Welsh courts
    if you must-
