So just Robin (!), Wren, those Bullfinch that've been around CQ for ages, and about a million other birds I see every week to track down before the weekend when I get back to Sheffield and inevitebly (sp?) add Red Grouse, Skylark, Meadow Pipit etc to the list when fell running!
 
Got a few more over the last couple of days out running and driving places.

36.Robin (finally the garden one turned up)
37.Coal Tit - a nice surprise as we dont get many in the garden, just one on its own
38.Bullfinch - seen on edge of footie fields as i went running up golf course
39.Jackdaw

Still no Wrens!? Tufted duck quite a notable absence too methinks

Had to add this one, as I was so pleased despite my knee being too crocked to finish my run in the woods

51.WOODCOCK !!

Flushed it when I cut across some wooded undergrowth - unmistakeable and very, very lucky!! Made my day :)
