Brrrrrrrr

A sunny day clouding up later, 4°, light W.

After yesterday’s snow that did not materialise there was quite a hefty frost overnight and stayed cold all day.

Did not venture out, things to do but an eye kept on the garden.

A Merlin flew across Cholsey Marsh this afternoon. Per Bill Lester.

A Raven flew over the garden late afternoon heading north.

The usual stuff in the garden today with 2 Nuthatch, a Treecreeper, a Coal Tit, 4 Long-tailed Tit, 2 Great-spotted Woodpecker, a Song Thrush, 4 Moorhen, 2 Collared Dove, 2 Stock Dove with the male frequently displaying to the female.

Several Greenfinch, Goldfinch and Chaffinch. Both Blue and Great Tit, Blackbird, Woodpigeon, Dunnock, Robin and Wren.

Several Redwing in the meadow and 2 Mistle Thrush and a few Fieldfare overhead.

after 50+ years of living in Cholsey Tony Rayner has seen his first Nuthatch and Treecreeper in his garden recently!

A great photo of a Treecreeper by Alan Dawson.
