First birds through the garden
early this morning, just light enough to see were the long tailed tits, busy feeding on the fat balls. A little later and good to see a pair of
bullfinches amongst others on the sunflower hearts.
We went for long
walk and saw a large flock of mixed corvids busy feeding on... I guess
leather jackets in permanent pasture at the top of Leather Lane. Rooks,
crows and jackdaws plus a couple of magpies.
Up at the far end of Strawberry
Hill found four lapwings again searching for grubs in a ploughed field, showing off their punky hairdoos.
Found a roe deer at one of their favoured spots on our way back and passed the
corvids again still busy feeding two hours later.
Went through the
stored apples later and found a few not keeping well so put them out on
the lawn and the blackbirds soon found them.
