Ventured out close to home this morning and saw more people
than birds but that is the holiday season for you!
The garden was more productive though, several Lesser Redpoll turned up on the feeders
with around a dozen Goldfinch and
three Greenfinch and around fourteen
Chaffinch feeding on the grass
around the feeders, the odd Blackbird visiting
and feeding on the sultanas along with a Song
Thrush and a ♀ Blackcap that appeared today (possibly Richards as he lives just over the road).
Several Wood Pigeon,
three or four Collared Dove and a Stock Dove on and off through the
afternoon, a Great-spotted Woodpecker
and a Treecreeper noted, regular Blue and Great Tit and one or two Coal
Tit and several Long-tailed Tit all
visiting and the usual Robin, Wren and up to three Dunnock present.
I have an update on some birds at South Moreton today from
Michael Pocock, around one thousand Lapwing
and up to one thousand six hundred Golden
Plover and a count of twenty-three Common
Snipe.
Also three Blackcap
(2♀ & 1♂)
feeding in a garden near Queens Road for the past two weeks, also nine Blue Tit today.
Thanks for the info Michael.Blackbird
A poor pic of one of the Redpolls, apologies!
