St Andrews Park

Things were slightly more interesting in the park than last week, with 6 very flighty Redwings seen several times in flight and briefly sitting in trees. Also a Black-headed Gull was strutting its stuff - an unusual bird to see locally although there were 2 in the park last winter. In addition there were 4 Starlings, a Jay, a rather pale Pied Wagtail and, best of all, a flock of about 40 Goldfinches - very impressive.

At the station a Raven was sat on the TV mast and a Jay was nearby. A couple of Greenfinches were seen with the usual Chaffinches, House Sparrows and Goldfinches and a small group of Redwings flew into the trees briefly.
