Burnham Beeches
It was a gloomy day for a woodland walk but I enjoyed my first visit of the year. It was very quiet to begin with, then seven or eight bullfinches feeding in birch trees cheered things up.
After an hour of walking I found a lesser spotted woodpecker (male).
I'm pleased with the pictures because, although not good, they're still the best I've managed in Burnham Beeches itself.
Elsewhere, a siskin called unseen and a stock dove perched for a while on a dead branch high up. Six redpolls were feeding at the top of a silver birch.
