Well, Spring is here ..... which is good .... but I've been v. disappointed by the almost non- existence of the expected winter birds. Apart from a few Fieldfares, I haven't got any Redwings, no Bramblings, no Waxwings, and despite some prolonged icy spells, nothing unusual has appeared in the garden. Generally, when we get ice, snow, prolonged cold etc, there's a good chance of something interesting turning up . But they haven't. Hey-ho ! Over the years of "In-Garden-Spotting" we've had Treecreepers, Goldcrests, Bramblings, Fieldfares, Redwings, overwintering Chiffchaffs, Blackcaps, Willow Warblers etc + other various sporadic flyovers on cold crack-of-dawns whilst luxuriating in my luxurious deckchair .... welcome visitors which compensate for lots of nothingness. Well, that was about 87% gloomy ... so let's jump straight to the music .... Stranglers in the Night ... hang on ... Strangers in the Night.....
