Wainstalls - Castle Carr Road - 1 Stonechat still, also 4 Stock Dove, 4 Redwing, 9 Fieldfare, 6 Starling - all toughing it out in the very cold wind!

Also male Sparrowhawk showing well around Wade Wood area and 2 Kestrels nearby. Usual Green and Great-Spotted Woodpeckers in the dean and 1 pair Bullfinch but not many other small birds showing today because of the wind!
