Sunny day but so much colder. Temperature only reached 8c as at lunchtime.
Day in the garden. This morning fixed up a new woodpecker box wired with a camera to a monitor.
The previous box succumbed to a chewed cable at the point it entered the camera. Impossible to repair. Chewed by a squirrel. This particular box is a little high in the silver birch tree to reach these days. This replacement box is fixed in the robinia tree at a lower level.
Within ten minutes of putting the ladder away a female great spotted woodpecker appeared at the box, how good was that?
Have to add however blue tits were also sounding out this box.
Long tailed tits also appeared today on the fat stick feeder. So many goldfinches and blue tits about today.
Finished looking at the trail camera cards today from the holiday period and think at least one hedgehog has hibernated, last seen 31st October. The tother one last seen 7th November.
Two foxes appeared, male and female so may hear barking at night in the coming weeks?
This afternoon I had the mower out to mow up fallen leaves from the front garden. Ready made leaf mulch.
