Still more Hawfinches!

Hello

No birding for me today but Eleanor was up at Harrington Airfield this morning and there were still plenty of thrushes depleting the berries. Three Hawfinches were all perched in bushes and consuming hawthorn berries, two not far from the chippings compound and a bright male by the second bunker. An adult male Peregrine was in hunting mode and seemed to be targeting the Fieldfares.

Another Hawfinch was circulating around the village here at Hanging Houghton this morning, possibly spending time in the grounds of Lamport Grange, and it or another was heard calling this afternoon.

Regards

Neil M


Sorry for the recent repeat of
this image but I don't have
many pictures of Hawfinch!
