Not a vintage morning for photos but the park was full of birds…
Dusky, Japanese and Brown-headed Thrush, Narcissus Flycatcher, Eastern Crowned and Sakhalin Leaf Warbler, Wryneck, Grey-headed Woodpecker, Latham’s Snipe and lots of Russet Sparrow.
And the usual common stuff…
A Saturday walk
I had the day off today so walked down to the cape…
Some common birds were in evidence.
Other tiny park inhabitants…
There were also Eastern Great Tit, 2 Great Spotted Woodpecker and 1 Dusky Thrush.
More very local birds
Some birds from yesterday…
No waxys or xbills morning
Yesterday anyway. Well there was one flyover crossbill…
But there were still a few birds to photograph on a very white snowy morning.
Not only Xbills
Other common species shared the same park as the crossbills…
Still birdy
In the tiny park near my place there were 4 species of tit, Great Spotted Woodpecker, a small flock of Brambling, 1 Hawfinch, a male Daurian Redstart, 1 Long-tailed Rosefinch, several Dusky Thrush, 2 Eurasian Nuthatch and 4 Crossbill. On the river were Great Egret, Grey Heron and above was a Eurasian Sparrowhawk. Not a bad haul…
Not great photos. Shoulder issues etc etc…
Yet more parklife
A lot of interesting birds in the park recently…the first Daurian Redstart of the winter, 3 species of woodpecker, lots of Nuthatch, 4 species of tit…
And near my apartment this female Bullfinch was skulking around.

Some of the commoner birds in the park this morning…
A grey Christmas Day
Wow it was cold today…
Although east of town doesn’t have much snow.
Back in town there were blizzards.
Not there
There has been a family of Oriental Scops Owls showing well in one of the local parks and we went to look for them this morning……………….but couldn’t find them.
Quite a few birds around though: Coal and Varied Tit, Grey-headed Woodpecker, Common Crossbill, Narcissus Flycatcher and Kamchatka Leaf Warbler.
