Sunday's Field Trip

I think I can speak for all who attended the Birding Group Field Trip on Sunday when I say how enjoyable it was. The weather helped, but it was a really interesting area to visit, one I had never been to before. We had great views of some woodland bird species and a chance to chat and catch up with old friends. Many thanks to Andre for guiding us around, to Elaine for organising the meeting and to Moira for compiling the following list -

buzzard, magpie, raven, blue tit, great tit, robin, blackbird, red kite, reed bunting, woodpigeon, jackdaw, wren, treecreeper, nuthatch, coal tit, great spotted woodpecker, siskin, marsh tit, chaffinch, lesser redpoll, greenfinch, goldfinch, crossbill, mistle thrush, carrion crow, jay, and snipe.
