THE BIG FREEZE INTENSIFIES AT BEDDINGTON

Not only have conditions got worse.. but it is getting even worse still tomorrow. Some amazing sightings today: an incredible 12 Jack Snipe (pic 4) in the channel, 2 male Yellowhammer (pic 2) on the mound, a Short-eared Owl over (I missed it), a female Wigeon (pic 3)amongst the remaining 40+ Teal and also a Brambling was seen.

Really important to feed the birds in this weather. We are putting more seed out at the farm and I've also set up a new feeding station in my communal garden. Off to the shops in a minute to get some fruit for the thrushes.
