There has been an icy cold wind blowing around our neck of the woods in the last few days and it has meant that we have had lots of birds in the garden taking advantage of our feeders and bird baths. I have been at home today looking out on and off at the bird action in the garden.
At the moment we have been averaging about 10 - 12 bird species a day but today was, I think, the best day ever with 16 species. They were;
- Blue tits ( a pair)
- Blackbirds (a pair + a couple of extras)
- Woodpigeons (9 at one time)
- Goldfinches (numerous)
- Siskins (a pair)
- Jackdaws
- Starlings
- Sparrows
- Greenfinches (lots)
- Dunnock
- Blackcaps (a pair)
- Great tits (a pair)
- Robins (a pair)
- Pied Wagtail
- Thrushes (a pair)
- Chaffinch - Mr
