Suprised you've not caught up with Short-eared Owl as there were record numbers on the Dee Estuary this last winter. Siskin should be fairly easy at Macclesfield Forest or Delamere & Bullfinches widespread. Green Woodpeckers also fairly wide spread with Marbury Country Park being a good spot. Long-eared Owls breed in the County but difficult to catch up with. Brambling numbers vary from year to year & Goshawks rare.</blockquote>
