3 November 2022 - Hollingworth Lake

Around 4 Goldcrests in the big hedge and Pavilion Wood, with 2 Siskins in the alders and Redwings about at Hollingworth Lake

A better morning, with some sunshine, and it seems there's been a small arrival of Goldcrests.  One was feeding in the big hedge (in shade, so rather high ISO), and at least two, maybe three in the Pavilion Wood.

A couple of Siskins were in the tops of Alders near the small stone bridge, and a number of Redwings were flitting about.  Possibly an increase in the number of Blackbirds too.
