Finally, the first Redwing of the autumn appeared in my Bracebridge Heath garden this morning (Wed), joining the recently arrived 6 Blackbird which are also probably visitors from the Continent.
Slowly but surely these birds are now coming into the garden from the nearby woods and hedgerows ( with garden Hawthorn berries being one attraction ) plus returning Dunnock, Robin, Chaffinch, etc.
Meanwhile, the masses of bright red Sentinel Crabapples await more esteemed visitors ........dream on.
