Another horrible day, dull and wet most of the time.
Spent morning sitting in the Useful Room taking note of the array of Birds feeding from the Sunflower Hearts Feeder.
Brilliant to see the Blackcap again along with the biggest number of Goldfinches I have ever seen in the garden.
Also lucky to see three Long Tailed Tits on the Fat Balls. Did not stay long however.
Ground feeding for the first time in say twenty years was a Song Thrush, stayed for some while fighting with the Pigeons for dropped food.
The Jay, Magpie and Woody also were busy feeding on the Monkey Nuts.
Managed pretty good photographs on all the above mentioned, see FB.
Afternoon spent driving around Reading looking for Waxwings, no joy however. Think I have missed out this year.
Spent rest of afternoon until dusk at Fobney Lakes. Fair amount of flooding now, complete contrast to the frosty scenes of last week. Counted 87 Canada Geese on one lake with many more at a spot which was unsafe to walk.
