Redwings and Fieldfares are dribbling in now in small numbers and Mark Hart got some good shots in the cordite woodland as they fed on the haws.

If you go out side at night at the moment moment you may hear Redwings heading over in the dark. The thin 'tssip' call is quite distintive and you may also hear the similar calls of migrant Song Thrushes and the soft 'chook' of Blackbirds.  I suspect that many are not stopping in the south-east but are coming down in middle England and the south-west.  A nice cold snap should deposit more on our doorstep though!
