Last day of lockdown. The course was looking in excellent condition on a sunny, frost morning. I had a brief walk around the far end of the Red course.
Was fortunate enough to get views of a stoat first thing, just on the edge of the 12th fairway.

Not far along on the 12th was the usual flock of Redpolls. I reckon there to be 30-40. They fly around the top of the birch trees in particular, feeding on the seeds. They are difficult to spot and are well-camouflaged among the leaves.

Elsewhere large numbers of Redwings and Fieldfares feeding on the berries, a party of 6 wrens in the scrub by the 15th and a buzzard in the trees behind the 13th.
