Nothing great, but a nice day in the garden after a miserable week. On the
feeders we had 5 species of tit, Blue, Great, Coal, Long tailed and Marsh, along
with Greater spotted woodpecker, Nuthatch, Starling (a rare winter visitor to
our garden) and Chaffinch. On the ground there were Dunnock, Robin, and
Blackbird. Elsewhere in the garden, both Bullfinch and Goldfinch, along with
Jay, Woodpigeon, Grey wagtail, Wren and Magpie, overhead Crow and Raven and in
the paddock feeding on scraps put out were Buzzard and Red kite. I heard Herring
gull but I didn't seen them.
All the tits except the Marsh were also seen around the garden as were
Dunnock, Robin and Blackbird.
