I was hoping to get out and see the waxwings that were near Murrayfield today, however due to the tyre blowout on Christmas Eve and not been able to get it repaired during the last week over Christmas/New Years as everything is closed, my wife can’t drive me anywhere (I can’t drive at the moment due to my ankle tendons popping out when I press the accelerator) so once again my what birds I’ve seen today comes from the garden, I’ve added a photo of a coal tit I shot a while back, hope you like it. This maybe the longest list of species for one record so far:
- Blackbird x 3
- Blue Tit x 2
- Bullfinch x 1 (female)
- Chaffinch x 1
- Coal Tit x 3
- Dunnock x 1
- Great Tit x 1
- Greenfinch x 5
- Herring Gull x 1
- House Sparrow x 3
- Magpie x 4
