    I think I might have a new friend, BFL. Out today planting new hedging (eco vandal next door) and noticed blackbird hopping about. I had brought some sultanas out with me. He was definitely interested in coming closer, hopped closer and closer but just too wary of making final few hops. I am hopeful though over the next few weeks that we'll become buddies.

    Heavy snow first morning up here in Highlands. And a biting wind. So no hills and mountains.
    But so far Redwing,Fieldfare,Stonechat,Reed Bunting,Kestrel,Great Spotted Woodpecker and Whooper Swans the highlights so far.
    Wind dropping as week goes on so much more exciting sightings should be on the numerous cards.

    It wasn't any of the birds mentioned. Does that help?
