Too busy on the computer to have gotten out proper birding recently. But still take Treakle out the back fields every day.
Flushed 2 snipe and 4 Lapwing this morning, which arent usually there but the cold weather must have them looking for more sheltered areas.
A few tree-creepers and mistle thrush seen in the hedgerows and the goldcrest has been frequenting the single conifer outside the kitchen window.


Heres a pic of the goldcrest that bred here a couple of years ago.
