If I thought the lane was quiet yesterday, then I was very much mistaken. Today's species list was just 1 Chiffchaff and a Robin.
However I did fair a bit better in the lower paddock with a late Wheatear. Also here but flying through were 5 Meadow Pipit, 3 Pied Wagtail, 3 Chaffinch, 3 Linnet and 3 Siskin.
The only other bit of excitement was when I returned home to find 3 Goldfinches and 2 Greenfinches on the feeders.
Here are a few images from this morning.
Just this side of the big white house a Wheatear was taking shelter from the north-easterly wind.
First stop the brambles.
Then a bit of a balancing trick on the fence.
A quick look to see what's around.
And then back in the lower paddock to continue feeding.
