Shame they are departing ones, rather than new arrivals...20+ Redwings was my only reward for 2 hours kicking hedges and scanning paddocks in the rain yesterday. The midden was still devoid of birds too.

I have 2 Brambling regularly coming to my feeders. And 2 Fieldfare flew over when I opened the chicken house at 05:50 this morning.

I did hear my first Willow Warbler and Blackcap of the year, shame I was about 200 yds into Barney, the parish to the West of Swanton Novers.

There have only been TWO records of Brambling in the whole of Bedfordshire so far this year. You are very lucky to have them on your feeders.
ReplyDeleteNot as many as we had last winter. How come so few records in Beds?
