February 27th
With heavy snow falling this morning my next door neighbour has just had a female Blackcap (112th) on his bird feeders and further down the road Julian Perry had a male in his garden.
Terry Wilson was out this morning at Plumpudding and saw 12 Lapwings, 10 Golden Plovers, 2 Stonechats and 2 Marsh Harriers.
After the morning snow we visited Chamber's Wall this afternoon and walked up to Coldharbour and recorded 5 Fieldfares, 1 Green Woodpecker, 1 Redwing, 35 Carrion Crows, 1 Kestrel, 10 Mute Swans, 18 Shelduck, 14 Redshank, 2 Wigeon, 45 Mallard, 2 Little Egrets, 7 Gadwall, 185 Dark-bellied Brent Geese, 1 Rock Pipit, 1 Grey Plover, 1 Golden Plover and 1 Curlew.
