Birds in winter

Friday, November 26th 2010

As snow continues to cover the reserve there have been a lot of birds around our feeders.  Long-tailed Tit, Blue Tit, Reed Bunting, Brambling, Greenfinch and Bullfinch have all been seen in the back garden.

The birds become more obvious against the grey and white backdrop of the snowy trees.  Visitors have noted, amongst others, Woodcock, Treecreeper, Nuthatch, Jay, Goldfinch,  Mistle Thrush, Redpoll and Buzzard as they have walked around the reserve. 

The deer are also easier to see and have been spotted mainly in the area towards the lake.  They stand out as they jump away through the Larch with their white tails bobbing. 

The Outdoor classroom is really beginning to take shape.  Here it is with the back and floor installed along with the first of the roof trusses.
