55 Little Gull - an adult flew SW low overhead
That's on my potential list - was hoping for one with the Kittiwakes passing recently, mind you I'm only 250m inland!

Several Fieldfare - one looking moribund in the t
road - desperately searching for food - and yet they will not come down to the food on both my gardens.
Four were sitting six feet away in a bush in sight of the food but wouldn't budge. They were squabbling over a few cotoneaster berries against next door's house.
In the back there is oats, raisins, nuts, pears and seeds - but almost nothing is coming for it.
50 yards away a neighbour has a variety of birds in good numbers!
I can't figure it out.
Nice one, Ken. 2 Ffs actually went to the food. Not sure if either fed!

One dominant Fieldfare is hogging the apples.
Split them up and spread them out! It can't guard them all if they're spread over several metres :-O
Huh, Paul, your problem is SSS (soft Somerset snow), the snow here is the real tough stuff, if I throw an apple outside it'll bounce halfway to the village.
French Blackbirds only appreciate haute cuisine so I'm obliged to cut up apples into mini-pieces for them.
