Just an hour was spent out on my patch this afternoon, a walk to the lake area, through the woods didn't produce anything much. Three GREAT SPOTTED WOODPECKERS drummed, trying to out do each other, a mixed Tit flock fed in the tree tops, including eight LONG TAILED TIT, and at least three GOLCREST were around. At the lake, which was three quarters frozen over, there was a single GREY HERON, a few MALLARD and MOORHEN and six TEAL, the most i've ever seen on the lake. On my return home I found a new addition to the garden year list, when a male SISKIN visited the sunflower hearts, number 25 for the year.
