I’ve been scoping out some nice berry-laden trees recently, that I pass on my daily walk to the train station. This morning on my way to the station, empty of birds except a lone blackbird, but on the way back, I was very excited to hear a gentle trilling as I approached – rounded the corner, and bingo!!!

13 of the little lovelies – feeding on a rowan next to the car park of the council offices, a car park shared with Barry Leisure Centre. I watched them from 3:34-4:45, when they flew off and sat in a tree in Home Bargains car park. I’ll check again and report on twitter (@lizardschwartz) if they’re there in the morning!
