Garden Bullfinches.
We sadly lost one of out regular males after he hit the house window. But still seem to have two pairs coming in to feed. But one of these males seems to have an injured leg .

Red Admiral.
Checking out some Ivy that was flowering for Hoverflies and various other pollen feeders I found a glut of Red Admiral Butterflies. Never seen so many all together.
