Winter birds Eglwys Fach part2

Ah! this will look odd on the blog as it will come before part1. I forgot to mention the numerable Goldfinches around the feeders, one of which I found lying in the snow, wings outstreatched and lookig dead but its' tail was just twitching slightly. I picked it up and it's eyes were closed but it looked in good shape so I took it indoors and put it in a cardboard box for about 20mins then had a look in. It was standing up looking fit and well. Up close in the hand they look even more superb than thro' the bins, it seemed perfectly fit so I took it outside and opened the box lid, it looked about for a couple of seconds and with a short chirp it was off into the nearest bush.
