What kind of bird is this? Around a dozen congregate around our bird feeders, dive to the ground and bath in the bowl of water below, and even fight over how gets to have a bath or a feed sometimes!

It looks like a common house sparrow but they're usually brown. I've never seen one that's blue and red! No nuclear power plants in Ireland, right?

Thanks Sean, I went a little mad with the saturation tools!

The texture is wonderful in this pic!
