Tregroes Tetrad

Very pleased to bump into Ian Morris doing his postal rounds whilst I was on my timed tetrad in South of County.

We compared our recent sightings and both remarked on the high numbers of Blue and Great Tits and absolutely no Thrushes since the freeze.

I counted 47 Blue and 23 Great Tits in hedgerows, woods and on feeders. Wrens were down from 6 in Nov to just 1 and generally less other Passerines.
