On our walk along the wall this-morning, at one point we found ourselves surrounded by a mixed flock of winter birds.  Mostly Long-tailed Tits, but some Blue and Coal as well as a lone Goldcrest.
The Long-tails were so close I could hear the fluttering of their wings as they shifted around just above my head.  Chaffinches were calling and singing all over the place and a couple of Siskins put in an appearance.  Not seen any Wrens lately though.
