There was a lot of activity near the house this morning with great, blue, long-tailed and coal tits moving through the garden, and a few redwings in the big garden opposite, in the berry-laden holly tree.
Best of all - a firecrest was again briefly in our own holly tree. Given singles (over the past three years) in the months of January, February, March, October and December, as well as the family that was here this summer, it seems reasonable to claim that in Taplow, the firecrest is a year-round species! (I knew there had to be one good reason for living here.)
