Some of the wintering Siskins seen on the local patch this morning.

Redshanks and another cracking male stonechat along the Durham coast yesterday morning.

Strange for once to see this peregrine pair both perched in trees this morning rather than the usual cliff face.

Inquisitive local roe deer this morning.

Gilesgate were everywhere today.

Great to see these redpoll back on the local patch for the winter this afternoon and this lovely roe doe 🦌

Great to come across another local flock of twelve yellow hammers this afternoon.

And few of the female peregrine this morning.

Awful morning weather wise, so popped to the local quarry to see the peregrines 😁 this is the tiercel.

A wee Jenny wren and lady stonechat from this morning.

Another roe seen this morning… this time a young buck 🦌

What wonderful experience to see and hear well over a hundred whooper swans on my local patch this morning.

Some of the six roe deer seen locally this morning.
