+DaveJW Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 I've been keeping my eye out for them since someone (Mick or Steve perhaps?) mentioned that they had been seen locally. I finally spotted some just down the street a few days ago, then got some pictures when I saw some again a couple of days later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Well done Dave. Their seems to loads of them around this year, they have had a good breeding season in Sweden and have eaten all their food supply so have migrated to Britain to eat ours instead.

+DaveJW Posted January 20, 2013 Author Share Posted January 20, 2013 Never seen any in my life before so I was very pleased to see them. They were going through the rose hips at a terrific rate, except when they got chased off by a magpie, which it did twice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
