Subject: RE: BS: Backyard Bird List 2017
Been stuck indoors with winterly poorliness since New Year's Day so haven't seen much, but my back garden feeding zone has been kept stocked. So here, so far, four miles from Bude, half a mile from the coast:

Blackbirds a-plenty
Blue tits ditto
Great tits
One coal tit
Robins including one exceptionally friendly one
Sparrows
Dunnocks
Chaffinches
Greater spotted woodpecker
Magpies
Common crows
Jackdaws
Fieldfares

We are bemoaning the absence this winter of long-tailed tits. There will be more little dinosaurs out there but I haven't had much chance to see them yet as my kitchen window on the world seems permanently steamed up!
