Great visit to Southfield's Farm this morning, a bit muddy in places, but hey it is Winter.
Strangely for the time of the year it was very quiet, I was expecting to see Linnet numbering in the hundreds and I didn't see a single one, let's just hope they were in other fields to the ones I was in, apart from the 'resident' House Sparrow population, easily the bird I saw most was Chaffinch, and they did number in the hundreds, they were mainly attracted to the supplementary food John leaves for them over Winter, strangely though there were no Reed Bunting spotted in those areas which is also unusual. As always, it was good to get out about regrdless of what I did or didn't see.
Birds seen today were, Yellowhammer, House Sparrow, Blue Tit, Great Tit, Chaffinch, Dunnock, Wren, Robin, Mistle Thrush, Pheasant, Pied Wagtail, Mute Swan, Mallard, Blackbird, Woodpigeon, Feral Pigeon, Jackdaw, Carrion Crow and Magpie.
