Chris braved the weather to visit his local lakes this afternoon. Just five Goosanders on Llyn Eiddwen and 10 Lapwings near Llyn Fanod, then a search through Chaffinches eventually produced a female Brambling.
Also in the Llyn Fanod area, a flock of around 40 Redwings and later, accompanying a large flock of Starlings were ca 70 Fieldfares.
