Regular readers will know that we had visited this site this January in the hope of seeing Lesser-spotted Woodpecker and that at that time no spring flowers had appeared.
On this visit, we are glad to report that the large covering of Snowdrops were out in their glory and that the distinct leaves of the Spotted Orchid were also visible.
Bird wise, alas, only Greater-spotted Woodpecker, mega disappointment as lesser in these woods has been a sure bet over the last 10 years. We also saw Nuthatch, Treecreeper, Redwing and Goldcrest.
Life bird count: 389 Year bird count: 115 Month bird count: 42
