It is on days like this when my nice warm duvet is hard to get out of of a morning. But get out I did.
I decided i'd have a nose around Hatfield Forest. There were a few Bullfinches and Green Woodies about and a flock of long-tailed tits. The lake was quiet lots of Mallards
and Canada Geese. Two Great Crested Grebes remain on the lake.
I was feeling a bit grey myself as I walked back along the path by the lake when a flock of small birds flew overhead. My initital thought was Goldfinces but through the bins I found about 30 Siskin!! First of the winter.
I popped into a petshop and got a pile of doggy stuff. Its Shane's birthday next week.
Think its a feet up read a book afternoon.

Siskins - nice "bright" spot :)
Mrs. Mallard makes a good picture.
Haven't seen Siskins for some time. Used to brighten my feders, when Octobers-were-all-about-Finches- up until 2006.
Global warming? who knows.
Miss Mallards looks very happy and content.
and love the Grebes too.
Enjoyed the glimpse of Grebes /Deb
