Thanks to everyone who took part over the weekend! If like me you can't watch birds without having a camera nearby you may have taken some shots of the visitors during the hour, please feel free to add them to this thread. Here is one of a fieldfare through the window from my survey hour on saturday!

can you see them all from that?
I can't find the signature box! guess I'm blind or thick!
Not a bad bird count session for me - my redpolls can always be relied upon although their numbers have gone down quite a lot in the last week or two. My two disappointments were that my three pheasants and two jays which are regulars failed to show, but as a bonus came four long tailed tits. I do get those occasionally but never on a regular basis and never for more than a couple of minutes at a time, so I guess I was lucky.
The greenfinch turned up in force
As did the goldfinch.

I also managed a fieldfare which was lucky because now the snow has gone, so has he!
