Time to take stock ...
Time to take stock here ...caught and rung Great Grey Shrike (first time, though winters every year).
Great Tits recovered after three years of falling number (though still 30% down overall), Blue Tits having best year ever. All else much the same, though woodpeckers attending feeders less frequently in past years.
However, a month earlier than last year, I have expectations of the spring gates creaking open in these next few days ... Crane maybe tomorrow ??
