Top Notch.

At least two Redpoll on the marsh today were the highlight of my bird sightings, other species noted were six Snipe, three Buzzard, one Tawny Owl, three Woodcock, three Jay, about three hundred Fieldfare including some ten per cent Redwing, one Grey Heron, one Red Kite and a couple hundred Gulls mainly Black Headed. An interesting Fungus was a type growing on an Elder Tree that was similar to Jelly Ear but was black and grey .

Not very good shot of one of the Redpolls

Phogenic Fieldfare

The interesting Fungus - any ideas?
