With the arrival out of the mist and gloom of a lone Fieldfare today (Thu), there has been a succession of members of the Thrush family in my Bracebridge Heath garden yesterday and today:
plus Redwing (up to 3) Mistle Thrush Song Thrush - failed to solve the removal riddle of the crabapples Blackbird (5 or 6) - some have now successfully worked out how to grab and pull/twist off the crabapples, usually taking them under bushes to enjoy the fruits of their labour. and Robin.
After the garden Waxwing on Christmas Eve, 4 Waxwings visited on Mon 27th Dec and 3 on Tue 28th Dec, but none seen since.
Regards,
Freddy
PS. No sign of the High Street, Lincoln Waxwings this morning (12.00 - 12.30) - or of many surviving berries on their favourite tree by the Lincoln Magistrates Courts.
