The 104 is at this address since we moved here, so just over 5 years!

With up to six at Swithland Reservoir recently it was only a matter of time...……
81 Great White Egret
One flew high northwest this morning. A garden first, #91 since January 2017.

41. Rock wren.
42. Ruby-crowned kinglet. Another new feeder bird! So tiny, so cute. I otherwise wouldn't have identified this bird if it wasn't staring me straight in the face (so very cheeky too) as I stood right next to the suet cage.
December 3rd. Only a couple more weeks left in the year. Too early to call it?
Ooh, I've never seen a kinglet come to a feeder before! Ours just flit about in the trees whilst the chickadees come down.
Don't give up yet!
Not a new one, but an upgrade from flyover to 'sat outside my window'. Very nice female Evening Grosbeak popped in for a few minutes yesterday, calling for friends who never turned up. She was close to but didn't use the feeders - looks like she has berry juice on her beak so must have been full from breakfast.
Just a couple more days to see if I can add to my 84. Two shy of my best year, with some very nice new additions - 5 brand new to the garden list, one of which was a lifer too.
Come on Amy, surely you're not going to let me beat you?8-P

I have not seen a Lesser 'pecker anywhere for well over two years, never mind in my garden, so rather jealous Ken. As far as I know there have not been any reliable records in the county (Leics/Rutland) this year but advice is to keep quiet about them if you are lucky enough to come across one.
