Nothing spectacular this year in terms of numbers but pleased to see that Willy (Pied) Wagtail who has been visiting our garden all week did put in an appearance during our Birdwatch Hour.
Cetti - thanks for that link, and yes seeing more pics of siskins, I would say that they were definitely siskins. At least now I know what I am looking out for :) let's hope they become regulars too.
Magpies seem to have taken over my peice of England, but seen a few blue tits,black birds and a couple of robins. I know Magpies have a bad name but my opinion is that they can't help being Magpies they know no different, so what is the answer for them.
