The lone Mistle Thrush at the entrance to our scheme continues to defent its Holly trre against all comers (including Redwings, Blackbirds and Magpies). It seems a huge amount of energy to expend - all that chasing and rattling - but presumably it is worthwhile in terms of energy expended versus energy source protected. New birds in my home square this weekend (presumably brought in by the wintry weather) have included Siskin and Redpoll. The Little Grebe on the river is probably the one that has been around for a while, although I rarely see it.
