I had about a dozen species of BOPS for my 'garden' last year which didn't include Whistling Kite, which I know you've had, or this little (or rather big) cracker!

Whistling Kite a regular visitor overhead (at least once a week) but still not seen Black Kite from home.

40 Dollarbird

Minus 15 C during the day today, but finally the bird list climbs...

Impressive totals for woodpeckers today, seven species today, including four to five White-backs on the peanut feeders and, somehow missed this year until today, Lesser Spotted woodpecker.

Also, third time ever on my land, a meandering Hazel Grouse in the snow a hundred metes from my feeders, that will be cool if he starts to forage under the feeders!

20. Hazel Grouse
21. Sparrowhawk
22. Lesser Spotted Woodpecker
23. Goldfinch




Mammal list also climbed by one ...a Yellow-necked Mouse on the peanut feeder, most weird to see it feeding between two Blue Tits!

10. Yellow-necked Mouse

4 Jabirus for Cairns is a goodly number; they usually only appear in singles. I'd submit that one if I were you.

A quick check...reveals me 6 down on the same time last year!, one of those absentees which is a 1st for me in 30 years, considering I was chin deep in them last year...is Redwing!

Not only from the garden, but local walks haven't produced any either!

I suspect their in hiding somewhere.
