Ground frozen solid and the garden birds not staying around.

The ground has frozen solid in my garden and the birds seem very busy flying around but not settling long enough to see what they are, they don’t seem that interested in the feeders today, I had noticed a fair few insects in the air yesterday which surprised me for such a cold winters day. Off to watch BBC Winterwatch on the iplayer and see if Chris Packham’s added any more Madness song titles to his list, here’s my very cold morning’s garden bird count:

1. Blackbird x 4
2. Blue Tit x 2
3. Carrion crow x 1
4. Chaffinch x 1
5. Coal Tit x 2
6. Dunnock x 1 added 11.34
7. House Sparrow x 11 updated 11.34
8. Magpie x 1 added 11.34
9. Robin x 1 added 11.34
10. Woodpigeon x 3
