Case in point, although far less spectacular than an Amur Falcon..... 1 Greater Spotted Woodpecker in garden on peanut feeder attached to my new feeding station. 4th garden record for the last 2 years, so technically, it's a rarity! |

Hi Katherine,it is alway's nice to get a first of any sort,especially the un-expected ones,no matter what the rarity status of the species,a few weeks ago i had a first at Worlaby i had'nt seen there before,2 Knot,now to anyone else that is a common bird but not on my patch,so like i said before birding is alway's full of surprises,and the main thing is to enjoy it,so keep up your garden watching as well as your visit's to other place's and who knows what will be the next species to surprise you. Regards Steve. |
