Garden Birding

                              Ad Goldfinch heavily in the moult

                                  Full summer plumage
                                   Second batch of young House Sparrows out
All taken through glass.

A full day of drizzle and showers with the sun trying but failing to break through.
Had intended to check the flood this evening armed with scope to see if I could pick anything else out after last nights attendance but by early evening the wind had increased to NW>6 with heavy horizontal drizzle so it was back into the shelter of the front garden to get a bit more done.

For the first time in 25yrs the feeders are booming with up to 9 Goldfinch, 1pr Chaffinch , 1 Woodpigeon and a Collared Dove cleaning up on the floor, all birds that have been very rare before this summer.
Other than this the regular House Sparrow flock has increased to 30 + post breeding along with 3 Dunnocks and a Wren.
A long way to go yet to catch up to DJS s garden but hopefully this autumn could bring some newcomers.
Hope this wind drops for the weekend.
