Must be the snow that's brought them in!
On Wednesday I was watching the lovely flock of Chaffinches that have taken up residence, when I saw a different bird amongst them. On closer inspection it turned out to be.. a REED BUNTING! I was shocked and so happy! Wonderful little bird - in my garden!
If that wasn't good enough, yesterday I saw another great bird! I was watching a bird perching on a branch that looked like a Collared Dove with odd plumage (from behind - it was very far away!) It was a FIELDFARE!
Great to see two birds I'd only ever seen once before, and lifers for me!
