Bullfinches look superb in the snow.
11 whooper swans on my dog walk yesterday. They were in flight and sounded like a host of clowns on tricylcles sounding horns.

flock of starlings cleaned out the feeder earlier.
I've never seen them actually in the garden before. First there was a loan scout, then about 20 mins later the hoards arrived. I guess it's getting wintery out there.

Early count indeed Pedro..when I do mine I know that I won't get Siskin or Nuthatch, if I do it'll be a miracle. Running along river trail this morning--Bullfinches in various places, 3 Goosander (one drake), r Cormorant. Daffodils flowering well in nearby park!

Woodpigeon fest this morning. They used to regularly turn up in packs, but this is the first time I've seen more than a couple for a while. The female blackbirds are hounding them, with a bit of help from the squirrels.
