Cloudy with sunny spells, 4°, breezy SW.
A walk along Caps Lane looking for Siskin but still no luck,
however a fair few Thrushes seen with mainly Fieldfare and Redwing
feeding in the paddocks, several Blackbird
and a handful of Song Thrush.
A good number of finches, mainly
Chaffinch and several
Greenfinch,
Goldfinch and a couple of
Bullfinch.
Later a walk out to the Lees and the Stonechat still present along the dyke and very active in the windy
conditions. Not a lot else out there other than a flock of around 100 gulls (Black-headed and Lesser Blackback) and 40+ Corvids.
The resident
Carrion
Crows kept chasing off a scarce bird for the garden today in the form of a
Rook, chancing its arm
(wing) and on several occasions. Even
though there is a rookery at the edge of the garden, it is very rare for a Rook
to actually alight in the garden.
The 2 Blackcap
still regular in the garden.
