28 January 2024

 


I went for a walk around the Blue and Red course this morning.  The first time that I have visited in a couple of weeks.  There were a larger numbers of Redwings than I had seen so far this winter, but much smaller numbers than in the previous two years.  There were quite a few finches around, particularly bathing in the ditch on the left of the 3rd Blue - Siskins, Redpolls, Chaffinches and Goldfinches, but again, not in the numbers of previous years.

Waterbirds are enjoying the tranquility of the Blue course.  The Mute Swans seem to move between the 1st and 3rd and a pair of Canada Geese have arrived on the 4th where they usually nest.
