Some years ago Edmund Mackrill and i walked past an old hedgerow with adjacent strip of game cover and gamebird feeders near Welton le Marsh and saw a flock of c 300 yellowhammers it was late winter when food is scarce, assume you are putting out various seed mix for birds John? regards John |

In the atlas period from 2007 to 2011 in the 9, 10 km squares around Louth the max count was 3 separate flocks of around 120. The biggest single flock reported in the Louth square itself was 28. Interestingly I was out on my bike yesterday and had my first singing Yellowhammers so I assume the winter flocks are starting to break down now as birds start to hold territories. |
