The Garden was quite productive last weekend with several Chiffchaffs moving through, a flock of Long-tailed Tits, a Coal Tit, Blue and Great Tits and a male Great Spotted Woodpecker. Plenty of Goldfinches and House Sparrows as well. Some pics below, some taken through the window so not necessarily that sharp!

The trees and bushes we planted a few years ago are really starting to pay off now, providing food and shelter to plenty of birds!!
