In the Museum Gardens, York today with Andy and Isobelle.
For a welcome change this event did not clash with Residents Weekend.
Plenty of interest from visitors to the gardens and we lead a series of walks to see the birds in various parts of the site.
Near the Marygate entrance is a Cotoneaster bush and blackbirds and redwings were visiting the bush to feed on the berries. At the bird feeding station we saw blue, great and coal tits, robins, dunnock and goldcrest. A fly through by a sparrowhawk sent them all scattering for cover.
Part 2 at the Homestead Park tomorrow, let's hope that the rain does not spoil things.
