A large number of bird species have been recorded on the reserve, including redpoll, brambling and grasshopper warbler.
Here there were plenty of Yellowhammers and a few finches including several superb brambling.
In winter siskin, lesser redpolls and brambling visit.
Our first winter visitor, a brambling, seen in the garden among several chaffinches.
They then moved to a hanging feeder alongside Brambling, Siskin, and a stonking northern bullfinch.
We then had lunch but not before Viv saw a nice male brambling.
We then walked back just in time for a late supper during which we hopped out to see a brambling in the garden.
