This spell of bad weather has harrdly shifted for us up north since pre Christmas and snow has been on the ground for almost all that time apart from 2 days when it thawed.
We have had all our usual birds but the new additions we have had are Fieldfare, Redwing [now gone since they cleared the berries], Mistle Trush, Bullfinch, a female Brambling that has been here since Christmas Eve and the strangest one yet was yesterday...a Reed Bunting.
Luckily my friend who owns a bird food supplier came last night with a new sack of 25kg of Sunflower hearts, 75 fat balls and 3 kg of nuts...should keep me going for about another 2 weeks.
