Before the hail and showers I carried out my RSPB big garden birdwatch this
morning listing the following bird, totals are the amount of birds seen together
at any one moment, not the total birds seen.
The weather was dry, with cloud and some sun, with a slight breeze.
Time slot 8.45 - 9.45

An interesting example of the variety of birds which can be seen in a rural garden in our county.
