Finally got some goldfinches in this morning on the niger feeder, three in total; only taken them about 8 weeks to find it! Kind of makes up for the disappointment at missing what is apparently a large flock of waxwings in St Asaph. Keep meaning to run up there but have been full of lurgy and have missed out.

Deck the halls with 2 Xmas baubles?
I think there has been plenty of wild food for the goldfinches this year which may account for their slow uptake?

Cormorants galore at the lake I work at. Love those birds.

I didn't see the regular cormorants at the lake near home while running yesterday. I did see a green woodpecker elsewhere on the route.

Goldfinches absent from my garden and not about locally either. No Collared Doves either, never ever had as many as GlennR anywhere! Blackbird singing early this morning. Bluebell plants showing well above ground level all over the garden (not Spanish ones). |
