With such a strong cold wind it is always a good idea to seek out sheltered spots for little birds where they can get some respite and feed more easily. This was how I found the Redwings yesteday and where Russ and Dave caught up with several ground feeding Chiffchaffs. Insect life is tricky to find at this time of year anyway without the raging wind so the ground is defintely the best spot as these little migrants have shown.

There was no sign of the Ring Ouzel today but unsurprisingly the Black Redstarts were still around.
