My last three are Little Grebe, Tawny Owl and Fieldfare. The first two I saw last Saturday and the Fieldfares I saw first over Christmas (lots and lots of them!), and have seen them quite a lot since!


Pretty regular birds I think... interesting that I'd seen birds like bittern, avocet, bearded tit and chough before I saw redwings, fieldfares and goldcrests. But since I only started actually looking for birds during the summer of last year its probably not entirely a surprise - non-birdwatchers have a tendency to ignore birds when out and about, even if they actually like birds.
