There wasn't that many birds about really apart from hundreds of Crows, Magpies and Gulls on the grassland between the runway and the Farm. If you live in or near Birmingham and your unfortunate enough not to have House Sparrows in your garden or don't see them very often, then I suggest you give the Old Rectory Farm a visit because there are hundreds at this location, when you go near the cow or pig sheds you literally have to duck down to avoid them flying in and out, also with there being plenty of hedgerows about, they are literally everywhere and actually make quite a racket with there constant chirping, which is great to see and hear. The only letdown with the Farm is the people that work there, to say they are ignorant is an understatement, you can't even get an 'hello' out of them, still, each to their own.
Birds seen today were Blue Tit, Great Tit, Chaffinch, House Sparrow, Robin, Starling, Nuthatch, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Song Thrush, Blackbird, Jackdaw, Carrion Crow, Magpie, Woodpigeon and Feral Pigeon.
