Heavy overnight snow meant the garden feeders were busy this morning with Bullfinch, Chaffinch, Greenfinch, Goldfinch, Blue, Great and Coal Tits all present. A Cormorant was on the river and two Common Gulls were with the usual Black-headeds, Herrings and Lesser Black-backs. The male Goosanders (currently four of them) on the river are looking really impressive. The apricot colour of their undersides is particularly bright, possibly exaggerated by the otherwise monochrome landscape.
