Daily Report 2

Very few birds seen yesterday.

Weather was cold wet and windy.

More activity today, sightings included Dunnock, Goldfinch and Blue Tit.Went out early to fill feeders and was aware of a movement behind me in the dark. On turning round I saw a male blackie almost at my feet who was waiting for his sultanas to be put out. As soon as this was done the female also appeared as if by magic and the sultanas did not last long.

Very frosty first thing this morning and the bird bath was completely frozen. I had to boil up a kettle of water to de-ice it. It was a beautiful day later on but I had to deliver my car for servicing so did not have much time for observing the bird life.
