Siskins are back
At Last the Siskin’s are back and I need to devote some time to get some images of them. It’s very difficult to get a good shot as the light can be very poor and in the wrong direction. The local Sparrowhawk would also like one; its frequent visits scatter the birds in every direction, then it goes’ quiet. It’s not long before birds start to return, so I can try again.
Some nice Bullfinch are regulars at my feeding station along with Goldfinch, Nuthatch, Greenfinch, Blue Tits, Great Tits, Blackbirds, Songthrush, Wren, Goldcrest, Collared Dove and yes Wood Pigeon to name just a few.
A Great Spotted Woodpecker puts in an appearance every now and then. The Brambling did not turn up this year; we had up to 8 at any one time last year which is a bit disappointing.
