Saw this Dunnock today and managed a photo through the glass before it flew off.

Any ideas?

Sadly, Russell, it is suffering from Avian Pox which is a viral infection. Historically it has occurred in Wood Pigeons and Dunnocks but ringers are now coming upon it increasingly in Great Tits. There is more information on the BTO Website.
