Foxes, Bramblings and Sparrowhawks

A Sparrowhawk circled over the station this morning - it drifted off but reappeared a few minutes later. Also at the station there were 7 Magpies in trees near the footbridge.

An email today from friend of Wild Monty, Guy, to say that he has had a Brambling in his garden! This is a lovely finch from northern Europe and looks like a posh version of a Chaffinch. Great sighting.

A few Long-tailed Tits and a couple of Great Tits were in Montpelier Park this morning.

Last night at 7pm the dog Fox was barking outside the window again.
