17 Goldfinches looking at the niger seed I've started spreading on the lawn since the hard frosts, but only a couple brave enough to come down from the big trees to join the greenfinches and chaffinches, so far...

Saw today's pink-footed goose passage from Northowrham (9.30ish) and more at Skircoat (lunchtime). This year is exceptional.

A tawny owl calling repeatedly and visible in silhoette at Marldon Rd., Northowrham at 18.02.
