Lockdown Surprises.


  Lockdown week in the garden as thrown up a few
  surprises a Ring Ouzel in the back field the other day,
  a Yellowhammer singing on a neighbours tree which
  was lovely to see, and a Black bird with a red beak but
  unidentified I was thinking Chough but I can't see one
  of them being up here, it was a wee bit bigger than a
  Blackbird with a bright red beak, didn't get pic so it'll
  have to stay un'Id'd. Lots of Greenfinch have been
  hanging around along with the regular birds. I was on
  the lookout for the reported White Tailed Eagle that had
  been spotted in North Yorkshire heading this way but no
  joy but still got to see Buzzards soaring overhead and a
  distant flock of what could of been Golden Plover.
  Dunnocks nesting so must keep the Magpies away, hopefully.
