Morning Craggy,

Snowed again last night, just cleared it and put feed out here and in the woods, flock of Redwing above me in the trees immediately came down to feed on Apple.

Andyy had a couple of Brambling in Buckden woods on Tuesday, I have been to look but no luck, only seen the odd Greenfinch this winter, looking out the window now (0915) to see lots of Blackbird, Robin, Chaffinch, Jay, and all the usual Tits.

 

Regards Brian.
